So we have :

    symbol    nickname                Role
    ------    --------                ----
    <=>       spaceship               documented operator

    0+        venus                   numification
    }{        eskimo greeting         END{} in one-liners
    =()=      goatse
    ~-        inchworm on a stick     high-precedence numification
    ~~        inchworm                scalar
    "@{[]}"                           join $", ...
    -+-       spacestation            high-precedence numification

Not bad for a start.
