Guides don't always go all the way down
This is from a less file but I'm pretty sure I saw it in a JavaScript file as well, when I have empty lines before a closing brace, the guide lines do not span all the way down:
Thanks for submitting an issue.
I confirmed the problem. It should be fixed in a future release. However, it might not be so easy because the current algorithm rely on only indentation of each line. In case of CoffeeScript, it seems to work perfectly. But in other languages like JavaScript, it sometimes can't draw correct guides.

I'm also seeing this issue in PHP files:

It's been 1,334 days since this issue was posted. Is a future-release fix still on the horizon of possibility, or is it dead in the water?
If the guideline algorithm relies on indentation (rather than enclosure), one might expect it to work by adding tabs on the empty line where the guideline stops short. I've tried adding tabs until the column position is within the enclosure, but the guideline still doesn't go all the way down.
