Well, maybe we should use yen (¥) instead.  It even looks like a zipper.

(Of course, we'll leave out the little problem that half the people
in Japan would read it as a backslash wannabe...that's not really
a problem since a zipper would only be used where an operator is
expected, and backslash is illegal there (so far).)
