See my reply to bug #26958.  Should we have two requests:

1. Wavy (and plain) underline to follow text scaling (#26958).
2. Be able to configure underline line-width (#26959).

Is #2 enough?  If we could customize the :line-width for :underline
(and :overline? and :strike-through?), would that be sufficient, or
is there also a need for such lines to be sensitive to text scaling?
