New Widget or is there another way - dividing lines

I wanted to see if there was an easy way to create horizontal or vertical dividing lines to better define and group data on the page. I'm not sure, but thought this may be an easy widget to create, possibly as part of the product?
Or, if there's other ways to do this, could you point me in the right direction? (example of what I'm referring to is below)

Thank you!

Horizontal or vertical lines can easily be created with output fields or label widgets by setting border properties. For example, to create a vertical line:

- Remove "value" property
- Resize the element give it the desired height
- Set "border bottom style" to none
- Set "border top style" to none
- Set "border left style" to none
- Set "border right style" to dotted, dashed, or solid
- Set "border right width" as desired
- Set "border right color" as desired

This should get you going. We will also look at specifically adding widgets for vertical and horizontal lines in an upcoming update.
