Background conflicts with Cursorline
I use both cursorline and cursorColumn and there seems to be a clearing out of the background when the indentLine character meets the cursorline, but not the cursorColumn.

I was facing the same problem. I checked the docs and found this:
let g:indentLine_noConcealCursor=1
Problem solved for me. You should give it a try too.
nice suggestion, that almost worked....I guess it's better then before, but I'd still like to have it show up there if possible.

In 06cd61cf7b67e183f84e8a04a89937eb960e9cdb this option was changed to:
let g:indentLine_concealcursor=0
Instead of disappearing the the indent line using g:indentLine_concealcursor=0, Is it possible to just correct the background color of the indent line character to accommodate to CursorLine/CursorColumn's color?
Yeah, it would be very nice if the background color could match the cursorline instead of disappearing the indent character. Thanks!
Would that be possible to add a highlight value that you cna put in your .vimrc or in your theme directly ? From what I understand, everything that has ctermbg will inherit.
I don't understand how this would be difficult, but I don't know anything about vimscript either :/
EDIT: After doing some research: what we want is impossible because of the priority of the Conceal characters... On stackoverflow
EDIT2: Would it be possible to change the Conceal background color when we change line ? Or would that be too slow ? Also, why does it work with curso column ?
I tried setting this NVIM and couldn't get it to work.

I tried both let g:indentLine_concealCursor=0 and also with c as small letter.
Same little problem here too, it seems we either have to live with a background colour that doesn't match the cursorline:
e.g.

Or we lose the indent guides all together on the cursorline but retain the colour:

I think it would be awesome to be able to retain the background colour of the cursorline but see the indent guide through it.
Here's an example in Sublime Text for inspiration:

Huge thanks for this awesome plugin 😄 Fotis
In NeoVim works fine :slightly_smiling_face:
Is there a particular vim issue tracking this problem on upstream?
