The mode line has the :box face by default (see the attributes of the
face 'mode-line'), and if I customize window-divider-default-places to
(say) 'bottom-only', I don't see anything wrong in the resulting
display.  What exactly "looks bad" in your case, and how did you
customize the :box property?
