Subject: bug#33913: 26.1; Optionally not font-lock newline char when `comment-end' = ""
Date: Sat, 29 Dec 2018 14:39:58 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8712bcf4-a44a-4336-b398-e59202165fb6@default> (raw)

See https://emacs.stackexchange.com/q/46808/105.

Please consider letting users easily (e.g. user option) not highlight a
newline character when it ends a comment, such as in Lisp.

The effect should be to highlight only the chars of the line, starting
with `comment-start', up to but not including the newline char.

(I never would have noticed how annoying the default behavior is if I hadn't tried putting a background color on comments, as the OP did.  I don't even think it should be the default behavior to highlight the newline char.)
