This feature is about a vertical line, not a vertical line plus some
colored space around it. Just because the line is emulated by a sequence
of characters does not mean that we must provide char-related
customizations beyond the strictly necessary (i.e. the char used to draw
the line).

Indeed, the background effect when there is an active region is a bit
jarring and it would be nice to fix it, but IMHO it is not a
show-stopper so if there is no easy fix, leave it as it is.
