In principle this should not be a problem. Font-lock could easily be
told to look at two line, for example. In practice, the decision to
only look at the current line happens in font-lock, a package separate
from IDLWAVE, and we have no control over it. As far as I know, there
is no configuration option available to change this behavior.
