I would say no.  Dashes - "-- \n" - have a special significance in  
text/plain data, where they are used to delineate the signature.  But  
with the additional markup in HTML, this sig prefix is worthless.

Additionally, now that we have the ability to create a separate HTML  
signature, this can be used to adequately format the signature block  
to be visually distinctive from the message text.
