how about saying that in the symbol column,
instead of poluting report's output, like:

$ perf report --stdio

# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol (disabled)
# ........ ....... ................ ......................

also your change does not affect tui mode

annotation for some reason does not start at all.. could be
little more verbose ;-)
