Description Paul 2025-03-30 16:51:28 UTC 
SUMMARY
The new octant characters in Unicode 16 render poorly in Konsole, where they render correctly in VTE based terminals.  Mostly, they look very irregularly shaped/sized and broken up with various gaps and overlaps making octant graphics look broken.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. View octant graphics.

OBSERVED RESULT
See they look incorrect due to various rendering artifacts.

EXPECTED RESULT
Clearly rendered/aligned blocks with no breaks or overlaps.
