Those users certainly have a braille table with definitions for all the 
unicode characters they may encounter.

I think the default should be for wide characters that have no braille 
representation (currently represented by a question mark) to span 2 
cells with blank padding by default. At least in that case the total 
spacing will be right and things will properly align vertically.

You still can get a full description of such characters with DESCHAR if 
needed. But if they're représented with the replacement character then 
there is nothing to gain by packing them tight.
