Hi,

I know this is a problem with more symbols that just ~, and can be
really keyboard layout specific.

That's why I didn't mean it as a "blocker" for the ~ symbol, but more
like a thing to consider for the case the discussion would end up with
deciding between ==> and ~> with no real "preference". I'm sorry if it
did look differently. :)

Personally, I don't have an issue with writing either of those
variants and would be fine with either in the end (I can write ==> a
little bit faster and comfortably - since I can write it with just one
hand - but the difference is not THAT big), but I thought it's worth
mentioning.
