Rendering problems and fill column |

Hello.
I use `fill-column-indicator' package, however, it introduces some
rendering problems, see this issue for example (other issues are also
known):
https://github.com/alpaker/Fill-Column-Indicator/issues/58
It may seem to be not a problem of vanilla Emacs, but the author of the
package says:
> This appears to be a regression in Emacs's display engine's handling
> of cursor text properties. I'll look into isolating the underlying
> issue and filing a bug report. I'll report back here (and close this

Not sure if he did so or not. If it's really a regression in Emacs's
display engine, can we hope that it will be fixed in Emacs 25? Also, in
my opinion, indication of fill column must be a built-in feature,
because it's even more important than indication of empty lines at the
end of file (which is implemented).
What is your opinion on this problem?
Best,

Done.
If anyone disagrees and there is more to do here, please reopen the bug.
