Yeah. I liked the boxes too, when viewing them in a place where they worked.

But Dima is quite right that when they don't work (which is pretty
regularly in my experience if you spend much time dealing with build
logs on test machines/chroots/emulators/buildds of various arches)
it's a right mess (very long, ugly lines) so on balance we're probably
better off with out them, sometimes-pretty as it was.
