Review Comment:
   Hmm, how about `^` for `:at_start` and `$` for `:at_end`?
   
   For example:
   
   * `-column` -> `["column", :descending, null_placement]`
   * `+column` -> `["column", :ascending, null_placement]`
   * `-^column` -> ["column", :descending, :at_start]`
   * `-$column` -> ["column", :descending, :at_end]`
   * `+^column` -> ["column", :ascending, :at_start]`
   * `+$column` -> ["column", :ascending, :at_end]`
   * `^column` -> ["column", order, :at_start]`
   * `$column` -> ["column", order, :at_end]`
