Subject: Using a Square box character for "TODO" and "DONE" states in org?

I was just thinking today that instead of using "TODO" and "DONE" 
keywords in org-mode to denote tasks, why not use a square box character 
(like in task manager apps) to denote a TODO state and a square box with 
a tick to denote a completed state... That would make the tasks look 
more intuitive...

Since I'm only superficially familiar with UTF and issues with character 
sets, could someone suggest a method on how to achieve this? I guess, I 
should be able to copy and paste this character in a customize buffer, 
right? Any issues with this?

Thanks,
Jose
