That's not true, AFAICT. The default value is nil, but when you turn on the mode, it modifies the value of the character to be either U+2502 or '|'. > This patch changes the customization description to match the > current behavior.

I don't understand the proposal. We don't use U+2502 by default because not all terminals support it.
