That line is the marker automatically drawn to indicate tracked changes, see Options - Writer - Changes - Lines Changed section. 
It's not continuous between paragraphs (unlike in Word), only between lines.

Adjusting meta bug, also ask UX about this.

We discussed the topic in the design meeting and don't see blockers from UX/design POV.
