Catherine,
Given those two choices, I'd opt for elimination. Lines like that
serve no purpose in braille, and actually get in the way if you want
to fill out an application on a braille writer. Of course, if you
use a pen or pencil to write on the form, the lines serve a purpose,
assuming anyone can read your writing.

Tactually, dashes are much easier to read in Braille than
underscores. While we are on that subject, those horizontal lines of
underscores or equals singns that go all the way across the page in
many print documents these days, should either be eliminated
entirely in Braille or replaced with a line of either dashes or
colons no longer than the number of characters that would fit on one
Braille line.
