I thought that a suggested variant was rather like:

> | LF                       RF | COMMENT
> |   This is a short line.   ¶ | ends a short line (paragraph symbol)
> |                             | an empty line
> |   This is a very very ver   | starts a very long line
> |   y long line that finish   | middle of a very long line
> |   s here.                 ¶ | ends a very long line (paragraph symbol)

i.e. just like `(aset buffer-display-table 10 (vector 32 2230 10))',
but with the paragraph symbol in the fringe instead of the buffer.
