You added it with 'C-x v v'?
We have a problem of sorts, or a break in the abstration, where
(vc-state buffer-file-name) would return nil instead of 'ignored.
So the problem is your annotation won't show up if you just open an
ignored file (for Git backend, at least). Is that okay for your purposes?
As for which character to use, maybe a period? Although that depends on
what you want to bring attention to: usually people are happy to keep
ignored files ignored.
