I have customized my Emacsen long ago to show /, \, and : instead.
Never looked back, and I will certainly keep those customizations if
your suggestion is accepted as the default.
The current indicators are shown only if the EOL format is _not_ the
native one on the underlying platform. That was done a long time ago,
to draw users' attention to the fact that the file has unusual line
endings. I think the need to draw attention to that has passed. But
that's me.
