Note that this was a request from Drew who didn't even understand that
the "$" signs used up just as much space as the fringe would.

IOW a typical "I don't understand what I say, but I want my old teddy
bear back".

So, it doesn't seem to be a request of terribly high importance.

..and removed the previous feature of letting users decide to have no
fringe at all (neither of the regular "graphical" kind, nor of the
"old-style tty" kind).
