It would be nice if characters could show a tooltip like the buttons. Now you can't see a real difference between – and −, so a tooltip telling you that the first one is an en-dash and the second a minus would be helpful.
Actually it's possible to add a tooltip via
'characters': [ ["<span style='padding:0px; margin:0px; border:0px;' title='tooltip'>character</span>", "character"] ]
but this is really messy.

This is actually possible:

The problem is more that it would significantly explode the translations and the characters code, to do so for each and every character.
ndash, mdash and minus actually do have labels in WikiEditor and VE, as can be seen in the following screenshots.
