I still plan on doing that, but I don't see how it would help here.
AFAIU, it will make the result worse.
The main point of what I wrote is that we actually display the whole
5-to-6 character sequence of indicators as 4 separate strings, not as
a single string made of concatenation of those 4. So even if/when the
min-width stuff is fixed as we discussed, you will have 4 strings
displayed one after the other, and each one of them has the min-width
spec, so each one of them will be displayed as at least 5 characters.
And that's not what you want here.
