For a mode that expects most lines to be wrapped, I see not point in
leaving continuation marks.

[ Too long a line, huh? ]

My font doesn't seem to know the char 2230, and UnicodeData.txt doesn't
seem to know that char either.  So we should probably use something else.

Better write it as:

 (aset buffer-display-table 10
       (if show-newlines-mode show-newlines-newline-code))
