 Description   

It is really annoying not have the ~ character vertically centered. There are some Bukkit plugins that also use this and it looks weird in chat.

Would appreciate it if this could be fixed.

Ah ok.

This is not a bug, but a feature request, and should be posted on the MC forums here.

Actually, that character being at higher level is "correct". It is similar character as ¨ ^ ´ ` etc. As an example: ¨ and A gives you Ä. ´ and e is é. And ~ and n.. ñ
In fact, if the font has ~ vertically middle, it is actually sort of incorrect, and just made so for convenience (as some of these glyphs/symbols are typically not used alone..)

So, not a bug, more a feature request.

Edit: Though I also would like it vertically centered.
