funny thing about that

disambiguating <3 has been on our radar for a long, long time.

I'd prefer it the other way around.
<3 feels out of place now that most symbol tags have been aliased away.

I'm fine with the other way around too, just as long as we don't have several tags for said pattern.

Would love to know what you mean by this...do you mean disambiguating between the heart symbol and an actual heart? Or do you mean disambiguating between the heart symbol and the written "<3"? Or disambiguating between all three?

I personally don't like using "<3"...it doesn't work well in all cases. For instance words in which "heart" is merely a part such as heartbeat would look fucking weird as "<3beat".
