TextFlows ignore the opaque setting.  It should be fairly straight-forward to fill the background of the TextFlow (fragment by fragment) before drawing the text.  This can be useful for something like highlighting, custom selection, etc.

I think for your use case, you probably need additional margin around the fragments. Filling only where the text paints is going to be too small. So maybe this could be handled by the FlowBorder.
