bug#32337: 26.1; display-line-numbers-mode makes cursor ill-aligned when number face is changed

[Carlos Pita]

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.

Done, I will aggregate and report the results here in a week.

That said, my personal preference is for $ since it is ASCII and has
the conventional meaning of last line, without being a number itself.
