How do you mean "more graphically-looking"? Different characters to make it look like an unbroken line, or an actual graphical object (like we have for buttons)? The latter. We should try to make Emacs modern-looking, which means showing fancy, good-looking icons and small images instead of "ASCII art", wherever possible and reasonable. The ASCII fallback is fine for TTY frames, of course. Thanks.
