I haven't tried the patch yet, but if I understand correctly, it would normally be used to highlight the column to the right of the 'textwidth' column, so that text would be within the guidecolumn only if the line was too long. If guidecolumn is used that way, then I think the 1px line should be drawn on the left side of the guidecolumn, not on the right side.
