    _______________________________________________________

Details:

Currently when a nickname is longer than weechat.look.prefix_align_max, it
gets cut off and a + indicator is placed to indicate the cut-off. However,
having just a + sign makes it harder to select text directly following the
nickname, since it will include the cut-off nickname and the plus sign.

It would be nice if the string that gets appended to the cut-off nickname is
configurable, so I could include a space with it for instance (or change it
into a character that falls outside my terminal's word selection range). This
would improve usability, and theming support.

Apart from the nickname cut-off, it would also be nice if this could apply to
the merged buffer name (weechat.look.prefix_buffer_align_max).

Thanks in advance. :)
