The Next CEO of Stack Overflow

I would like to add a placeholder number in my text, to remind me that I still have to look it up, later. I usually just use something like "XYZ" or "???" for this. But when I'm using the SI notation I get an error that "?" is not a number.



documentclassarticle 
usepackagesiunitx

begindocument
I don't know yet what number to place here: SI???percent.
enddocument


The error I get is:



siunitx error: "invalid-token-in-number" Invalid token '?' in numerical input. For immediate help type H <return>. ...at number to place here: SI???percent


What is the best/suggested way to add a placeholder number or symbol in SI-notation?

  • SI[parse-numbers=false]???percent compiles. Of course that could be made global with usepackage[parse-numbers=false]siunitx. Slightly nicer: usepackage[input-symbols=?]siunitx.
