Eli, it ocurred to me that the line-number indicator could be extended all
the way down to the bottom of the window so it doesn't look weird when
empty, since one of your objections was about having that hanging empty
last line indicator. What do you think about that option?

Btw, people in reddit seems to mostly prefer ~ as the ASCII char since it's
the vim empty line indicator.
