It's not a bug, it's the intended behavior.  On GUI frames, the
display engine only makes sure to extend the face if it has one or
more of the following attributes:

  . background color
  . stipple
  . box

Why would you have underlining span several lines if you don't want
that effect?  (I admit I didn't really understand the original use
case which prompted this report.)

Anyway, you've just heard of another application which would like the
GUI frames behave like TTYs, not the other way around.
