Research direction
Start by locating where Asai renders the halfwidth rightwards arrow in its error messages and inspect how existing configuration is exposed. Done means callers can select a replacement character and error messages consistently use it; the payload names no specific files or tests, so those must be found in the repository.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
In my experience so far, I've found that most of my users do not have a font installed that can display the "halfwidth rightwards arrow" character ￫, with the result that the error messages look kind of ugly. It would be nice if I could tell Asai to use a different character there, so that I wouldn't have to ask people to install new fonts just to make error messages look nice.
