Yes, it's the same issue. I think a good way forward is for someone to investigate which fonts are typically used in xterm for CJK and other "unusual" scripts, including characters reported in bug#44664, then we could perhaps see how to improve the situation in Emacs in this respect. I don't see any easy ways to "fix" this except by clever font configuration, and I'd be interested to know whether xterm does anything beyond using fonts that are known to DTRT.

Inconsolata does not cover a couple of special Unicode characters, some of which frequently show up in the output of various terminal applications. Emacs will then fall back on some other font with completely different geometry for those, destroying the grid layout of the buffer. Steps to reproduce: 1. run "emacs -Q" 2. M-x term 4. type "pstree" into the shell 5. Choose "Inconsolata" as your font Result: Characters now have non-uniform width and height. Note that the pretty tree drawing gets destroyed. Expected result: Glyphs should be aligned in a grid. Using a more comprehensive font (e.g. DejaVu Sans Mono) does not solve this completely, as you can still get the same problem with e.g. Chinese characters.
