Yep, that looks like folding-mode. 

Its a very handy mode when working with larger files. recommend you try
it out before removing them. Also, there was a package a fair while ago
that I saw that could hide the markers for those who wanted to not use
folding mode, but didn't want to remove them because others found it
useful. Maybe see if you can find it (or maybe its now part of folding
mode). It would save you the effort of having to remove them and still
allow anyone who may want to also work on the mode who likes them to
continue using them.
