How does it look to you if you replace colon (:) with exclamation mark (!)?
Note: need to be a little careful with find/replace to avoid changing
colons in the text. Personally, I don't like it, but it does give a more
solid but broken line.

Another idea - do we need the entire path showing the grandparent
relationship? Would it be enough to just have it at the start (and probably
end) of the path?
