No, no, no. Josh and I just decided that it has already been taken as
the "eventual assign operator" in Croquet. It means that the variable
may or may not be assigned to and you're not supposed to care about
whether it was assigned or not. Best used with combination with unused
temporary variables! ;-)
PS. For other fancy arrows check
