Notice the unicode replacement characters like ␊ (U+240A SYMBOL FOR LINE FEED) that are used.
While this looks indeed nice and is probably a good default for most cases, it would IMO be even nicer if one could specify a quotation style, similar to ls’ --quoting-style=-option, but specifically for displaying/searching purposes.
The idea is, that this would be really only for display (and searching) purposes, i.e. when selecting e.g '\n' it would still return a literal newline.
One benefit of this might be, that the elements are easier to read (e.g. ␊ is quite small on a terminal). Another, that one can search for those characters (typing e.g. ␊ is not so easy via the keyboard).
