bookmark symbol change to ## or user selected

Maybe its just me, but I used to liberally use "#" in naming controls, indicators, in descriptive text, in comments, all over the place as shorthand for "number" or "number of".

 

Then came the bookmark symbol, and now my names and comments suddenly get picked up by the bookmark system.. It would be nice if you could change what symbol is the "key symbol", and/or if it could be optionally set to double-character combinations.  .. of course, this would be troublesome to implement and retain backwards compatibility.. 

 

Am I alone in missing the days when I could freely use the # character for whatever I wanted? 🙂
