>From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checkbox:

  =E2=95=AD=E2=94=80=E2=94=80=E2=94=80=E2=94=80 Tri-state checkbox
  =E2=94=82
  =E2=94=82 Some applications use checkboxes that allow an indeterminate st=
ate in
  =E2=94=82 addition to the two provided by a normal checkbox. This third s=
tate is
  =E2=94=82 shown as a square or dash in the checkbox, and indicates that i=
ts state
  =E2=94=82 is neither checked nor unchecked. This is most often used when =
the
  =E2=94=82 checkbox is tied to a collection of items in mixed states.
  =E2=95=B0=E2=94=80=E2=94=80=E2=94=80=E2=94=80

Something like [-] could be nice, then, as corresponds to the Org look
and feel.

Best regards,
