If you set the background shading color for a line of text, the background
shading color only applies directly to the line of text and not the spacing
before or after.

Suppose you select a text paragragh and its heading to be shaded light gray.
You increase spacing below the heading and text body, select the heading
text and put a bottom border to it. Notice how that breaks the shading.
