I like the "-" and "+", but I really don't like the "*". That's just too big
a character for a mark, and I find it visually distracting, especially in the
X font I normally use. I would be happy with "-" instead of "~", though. I'm
actually happy with either one, but I've heard other objections to "~" as
being confused with the CONNECT "away" marker.
