It might be a good idea to post this there, as well.
say I want the form feed (^L) character to be displayed as a row of
dashes (-----).

Is this possible (without modifying the actual VIM source)?
As far as I know it is not possible to do exactly what you want
without modifying the source, but if you're willing to visually
replace it with a *single* character, you could use the conceal syntax
feature. For example:
:syntax match FormFeed "^L" conceal cchar=-
:set conceallevel=1
In the above example, ^L is a literal control-l inserted by typing
control-v then control-l.
