Scott has it correct--administrators can generally define other group
name shortcuts via $DoubleBrackets.
The point of the ~ markup is to just provide a shorthand for usernames,
and to keep usernames from being totally referred by the Profiles group.
At present I'm continuing to go with {{~username}} over {{~/username}},
by way of analogy with unix and web conventions as well as being one
less character to type.
