Fixed.

You can reply in https://yhetil.org/emacs-bugs/87o7tfkby9@gmail.com/T/#t

Juri proposed a similar idea in
https://yhetil.org/emacs-bugs/87o7tfkby9@gmail.com/T/#m7baceaf9a109cc7ca118b7e834cbfaa7c7e792fd
I replied there.

I saw the bug report on Emacs, but I am not sure how to reply to a thread there 
without being subscribed to the mailing list, so I will reply here.

I think a possible solution that can be implemented in org-mode side would be 
for the outline to include the new line character after `#+end_src` to hide the 
whole line (including the extended background). The final result can then be 
fixed by adding a newline character to the `...` glyph.

Do you think that would work?

Thanks for reporting!
Confirmed.

This is because Org keeps the last newline visible and Emacs apply
:extent t to that visible newline.

I do not think that we can do much about this on Org side.
I have redirected this bug report to Emacs devs.
See https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=59141

extended background on org-block-end-line

[Al Haji-Ali]

I'll admit this "bug" is not critical, but it is visually annoying (at least to 
me).
When hiding an org entry, source blocks with extended backgrounds remain 
visible.

To re-produce:

0. Run `emacs -Q`

1. Create a buffer with this content and ensure `org-mode` is on

* One
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
#+end_src
* Two
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
#+end_src


2. Change the face `org-block-end-line` to have an extended background on the 
end-line of the
org-block

(set-face-attribute
   'org-block-end-line nil
   :extend t
   :background "#4e5079")

4. Go to "One" and press tab

5. Notice how the background colour now appears next to "One".

Is there a way to fix this? Note that if the org-block is not the last line in 
the entry (for example if there's an empty line before "* Two") then the visual 
artefact is not present.
