There are descriptions in the source code like this:

  g_object_class_install_property (object_class,
                                   PROP_BG_FULL_HEIGHT,
                                   g_param_spec_boolean
                                   ("background_full_height",
                                                         _("Background
                                   full height"),
                                                         _("Whether
                                   the background color fills the
                                   entire line height or only the
                                   height of the tagged characters"),
                                                         FALSE,
                                                         G_PARAM_READABLE | G_PARAM_WRITABLE));


The docs tools just don't know how to pull that stuff out yet.
Probably a pretty easy thing to remedy if someone's looking for a nice
GTK project to work on.

Anyhow, I don't see a bug in bugzilla for the
line-color-extends-to-right feature, so someone should probably file
it. I'm not sure if there should be new API or if it should just work
as I described.
