[Coloring] Depth colorizer paints over column guides from Productivity Power Tools
When using the Column Guides feature from Productivity Power Tools in VS 2013 together with Indent Guides/Depth Colorizer, the column guides are not visible in F# files until after the last line of code. Empty lines are fine.

Oddly, I just noticed that it works right now (except for the current line, which alone I think would be negligible). Will observe further.
What are the green lines on the right?
Those are the column guides created with Productivity Power Tools. They're usually visible across the whole length of the page, but the depth colorizer paints over them, so they're only visible after the last line of code. As I said, it didn't paint over them the other day, but most of the time it does.
I don't have Productivity Power Tools to test this. My guess is that it's an ordering issue where VFPT indent lines are rendered on top of Productivity Power Tools' column guides.
The relevant line is https://github.com/fsprojects/VisualFSharpPowerTools/blob/38715049c6c3a5b03478dd19bac47ac2c94a6382/src/FSharpVSPowerTools/DepthColorizerManager.cs#L58.
Mark this up-for-grabs in case someone would like to help with a fix.
