Sorry for a long delay in responding.

Yes, this looks like a good solution to me.  In fact, I was about to
ask you to make a similar (less elegant) change, because I couldn't
think of a way to resolve this in core: when a face explicitly asks to
extend itself past EOL, we cannot in good faith refrain from doing so
in some use cases.

Thanks.
