I second this and would gladly participate in sponsoring this.

Moreover I would propose to create some additional "strike through" 
symbols - the slash we see now doesn't work ideally with all numbers 
re. visibility (esp. the 6 is an less than ideal case in my opinion).
Typically these would be numbers with elongated elements slashed - 
I could supply examples, if wished.

Trent, count me in with this sponsoring project.
