With user interface questions, what users want is the key to what
behavior is good or bad.
Eli said it would be difficult to reliably display undisplayable
characters as diamond _on all consoles_. But I contend that it is not
hard to implement an option to do this _on Linux consoles_.
Eli, is there something difficult about that?
This option doesn't need to go through terminfo, if that would make
it difficult.
