rows of alternating colors in longtable: filling whitespace depending on the row number

I’m using the longtable package along with booktabs-style rules and alternating row colors. The MWE

will give:

There is some whitespace between midrule and the first row as well as bottomrule and the last row on page 3. I learnt from this answer that one can fill those gaps using belowrulesepcolor and aboverulesepcolor:

Which will give:

However, the first row on page 2 will also be preceded by a gray bar, although the first row is white. Is there any chance to make this more robust, i.e. by using some if-else-statement using the current row number? Thanks.
