Please tell more about this "separator character": what should it be
and how will it be displayed? And what is its purpose in the first
place?
I'd like to avoid adding a general format-style extension to the
native line numbers, that's a kind of creeping featurism that will
eventually slow down redisplay too much, something that the
display-line-numbers implementation explicitly attempts to avoid.
People who must have the full-fledged format capability could simply
use linum-mode instead.

The code is in xdisp.c, if that's what you meant to ask.
Thanks.
