Description
I am currently trying to combine box-drawing and arrow glyphs to create my own terminal-promp. Here is an example: (U+2514 U+2500 U+2192, font-size 36)

As can bee seen, there is a slight gap beween the glyphs. I also tested multiple alternatives, no one matched completely:

In generall I can live with one of the above, especially the first one in lines one and two are acceptable, but I still want to ask:
Would it be sensible to change on of the existing glyphs to fully integrate with the border elements?
Or could a new glyph be intreduced (feels unnecicary to me)
Or is there an existing way to get this to work?
