Details

Result can be seen in this WPT. When a highlight contains a line break, an additional whitespace is painted in highlight colors.

The reason is that highlights are implemented using the selection mechanism. For Selections the whitespace before a line break is intended.

For now I see this as a minor issue and I don't think there's too much need to fix this. This may change once webapps report this as a bigger issue.
