Probably never as much. These days with ISO 8859-1 being the standard
for Web browsers and the Web being everywhere one might consider using
these symbols in one's art as well. But in browsers you can already
integrate graphics through images. That is how it will be with GUIs
capable of displaying Unicode, too.
If you want to do it as a hobby, feel free. It'll probably not have
any useful application, though, like the ascii-art flowcharts in the
RFC-documents.
If you do something for dumb text terminals the safest bet is do stick
to ascii. Modern standards for modern displays have rendered graph-
ics-thru-text contortions obsolete, though.
