I believe you need to use an overlay (which is how Gnus does it --
take a look at `gnus-summary-set-article-display-arrow').  Overlays
are described in the elisp manual, and my quick glance at the page
doesn't make adding chars to the fringe appear "simple", alas.

Maybe you'll see something I didn't.
