I only tested it in GUI, but your tty description indicates it also
shows up for ttys (unsurprisingly).

That's the kind of discrepency I'm talking about, yes.

That as well.

Yup.

The first and 3rd issues seem to be due to the fact that `face'
properties on the before-strings of the overlays aren't obeyed except on
the first line. And the second is the same problem but for the
`display' property.
