   Only problems I had - aa2u translated the dash
   in "best-effort" as well (perhaps unavoidable, but very
   minor so)

You can "mask" that text w/ ‘aa2u-mark-as-text’.
   
BTW, if anyone has any particularly fetching examples of
ascii-art-to-unicode.el at work (or play) that they'd like
to contribute to its tip jar page, please post it to this
mailing list w/ "aa2u zow" in the subject line.  You can
post either only the ASCII, in which case i'll prepare a
"before and after" file (and screenshot), or a file that
does the "before and after" demo including instructions
on how to get from "before" to "after".

I will credit contributors on the tip jar page, of course.

   Also, when typing, that typically screws up the figure,
   so can you make it insert text while simultaneously
   eating whitespace at the other end?

This is what the venerable ‘overwrite-mode’ does.
