You are right, it would not be enough to simply replace the characters, one would have to translate the "traditional" input to the unicode characters on the fly. But it looks sooo much better and would be, strictly speaking, still just plain text. I love org-mode for its power and flexibility but I grew up using an Amiga, laughing at the MS-DOS users with their ancient text mode interfaces and I still can't force myself to like that aspect of org. So everything that makes it look more "graphic" is welcome to me.
