<pre>We could add U+2212 MINUS SIGN to the lexical tokenizer for formula expressions
and treat it like a U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS operator minus, whereas every output of
the formula expression would display the U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS again. Maybe we
could even recognize it for a simple numeric cell input. We probably could not
catch every possible place where a negative number can be entered and is
consumed, so it would work in some context and in others wouldn't. Not much
desirable for me..</pre>
