gonghenghai There is a limitation from the linters themselves here, we don't get the full range from the linters. So, we have no way to know should we cover the entire line or just the character.
The pop-over linter message issue is due to a VS Code UI bug. the hit box size apparently go changed in a recent release, and it does not show that correctly in some scenarios. see here microsoft/vscode#136711
Note that with #17235 we are plaining on making it easier for python community to contribute to linting in the extension.
