@rachelandrew I think it would be nice to have the choice (option 1). I'm trying to think of good use cases for having a multicol container with height greater than its content ... maybe if you were using vh to make it vertically fluid, and it had a background image. In that case, I might want the columns rules to be the content height, to avoid disrupting the bg image. In a different scenario, with nested contexts (like columns inside grid) where you might have items in a row stretching to be the same height, you might want the consistency of column rules all being the same container height.
