I've amended reStructureText.txt, "Section Structure", as follows::
An underline/overline is a single repeated punctuation character
that begins in column 1 and forms a line extending at least as far
as the right edge of the title text. Specifically, an
underline/overline character may be any non-alphanumeric printable
7-bit ASCII character [1]_.
In a footnote I list them all specifically.

No, just one character, repeated, per underline.
