Given that my system displays most major alphabets, and that I can
recognize most, the glyphs are more informative for informal purposes than
seemingly 'random' codes.
The same goes for me - Konsole displays all sorts of Unicode glyphs just
fine. I can actually read Japanese kana and the Cyrillic alphabet a heck
of a lot better than I can read Unicode hex escapes, purely because the
additional symbols are more distinctive than a relatively arbitrary
collection of numbers :)
Cheers,
Nick.
