This is really only a very cosmetic issue.

I have some reservations about this patch.
- Is it really correct to _subtract_ a position to balance the border?
  I'd expect you would _add_ a position to make sure that you never have
  to few positions.
- Should not first a "cleaner" solution be implemented for the fact that
  the width of the sigils varies? I think subtracting a position currently
  only "works" because most times the sigil is not 2 positions while we do
  now reserve 2 positions for it. This function would be the correct place
  to implement that.
- The patch makes the newtCenteredWindow calls fairly complex. It would
  possibly be better to recalculate the width by calling a separate
  function.

Cheers,
FJP
