I tried rendering something with braille characters, but for whatever reason using Konsole in Archlinux, despite trying multiple fixed-width fonts, the no-dots (empty) braille character rendered with a different width than all the others, and trying other (fixed width or not) space characters instead also didn't help. This of course messing up the alignment. Maddening!
When making a fixed width font and adding the braille characters, the first priority should be to make all 256 (also the empty one) of them the same width! And a VTE should of course prioritize rendering fixed width as fixed width. How did that get screwed up?
Now that I think of it, I could have used one of the others but made the font fg color the same as the bg color. But that wouldn't look good if then copypasting it into a plain text editor.
