The edge line, as defined in my settings with:

  edge.mode=1
  edge.column=100
  edge.colour=#FFC0F0

is currently drawn over the text.
I will make a lazy request (meaning I could make it myself, but I don't work much on Scintilla lately), making it official in the same shot...

Is it possible to draw it behind the text, and, of course, in front of any background colour? When typing with proportional fonts, the line frequently goes over the characters, making them hard to read or even almost hidden (a 'i' for example).

Which leads me to another request, which I might have already made here:
it would be nice if these settings could depend on the current lexer (or file extension?). For example, this mode is nice for languages for which I selected a fixed font (C, Java...) but ugly and unusable for languages displayed with a proportional font (most scripting languages, plain text).

So being able to write:

edge.cpp.mode=1
edge.cpp.column=100
edge.cpp.colour=#FFC0F0

and

edge.lua.mode=2
edge.lua.column=132
edge.lua.colour=#F0C0FF

would be nice... :-)

Switching these settings manually isn't very practical.
