Ok. Then my approach would be to keep things as they are until someone comes up with a specific complaint. :-) As I said, the box drawing stuff is fixed, so feel free to raise a new issue if you find something else which is a concrete problem.
Yeah, I agree. Codepages are a mess anyway; as long as there's some kind of reasonably sane translation done, it's as good as it's going to be.
(As a side note, I think you were justified in assuming thick/double lines was a font issue. There is no semantical difference, so I imagine the only reason why Unicode assigns separate codepoints to them instead of treating them as font variants is for compatibility with some other encoding that has both...)
No idea. To be quite honest, I wasn't even aware of those other box-drawing characters' existence until I came across this... there's so much Unicode that it's impossible to see it all.
