Is this customizable at all? I've seen some old threads where people used @ for alert (and a hack to replace it with something else if the \alert command didn't exist, see http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2010-01/msg00614.html and http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2010-01/msg00754.html ), but the solutions mentioned there don't seem to work with the current version of org.
