[Scilab-Dev] freeing the "@" symbol?

Hi,

The symbols documentation page states that

For historical reasons, different symbols may represent the same operator:
  { as the same meaning as [
  } as the same meaning as ]
  @ as the same meaning as ~
  ` as the same meaning as <
  It is highly recommended not to use these features because they will 
be removed in the future.

But the future is now. Is there any plan to free "@" (instead of 
removing it)? Actually, i do not intend to set a liberation committee 
for that, but it could be useful for instance as a new free overloadable 
binary operator. Free symbols available on all keyboards and not so 
numerous. "@" would be a good guy.

Read you soon
Samuel
