Sounds reasonable.

Hmm, I don't think it is worse than @, but ok ...

I really don't like the @, maybe it is the font, but for me it looks
like there's something wrong with this node (a squashed "o").

Maybe a P (parent) or O (just an "o", but a special one)
or H (you are Here) or W (working copy)? (descending order of
my preference)

 | o |  | o |  | o |  | o |
 | | |  | | |  | | |  | | |
 +---P  +---O  +---H  +---W
 | |    | |    | |    | |
