Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 > This glyph is not easily manipulated without having to essentially over-
 write the entire `comment_form()` function.

 This seems to work for me:
 {{{
 function change_required_fields_glyph_23870( $defaults ) {
         $defaults['fields']['author']     = str_replace( '*', '#',
 $defaults['fields']['author'] );
         $defaults['fields']['email']      = str_replace( '*', '#',
 $defaults['fields']['email'] );
         $defaults['comment_notes_before'] = str_replace( '*', '#',
 $defaults['comment_notes_before'] );
         return $defaults;
 }
 add_filter( 'comment_form_defaults', 'change_required_fields_glyph_23870'
 );
 }}}
