The canonical way of using this feature is with "M-x visual-line-mode",
not with toggle-word-wrap.  visual-line-mode takes care of removing
the fringe indicators as well, so the appearance on GUI frames and TTY
frames is the same: without continuation indicators.

toggle-word-wrap does part of the job of visual-line-mode, and frankly
I don't understand why the former even exists.

Making continuation glyphs appear in TTY frames shouldn't be hard, but
I don't know how important is that.
