Note that in Math, the "<?>" is *well-known* in the formula text window: it is
always inserted wherever any placeholder is needed. This same insertion
*already* has it: "func func(<?>)".

The only difference here is that this "<?>" is *usually* shown as a box in the
upper "preview" window, and in this case, it would not appear there as the box,
but as literal "<?>". However, *for users of Math*, "<?>" would be more likely
to be familiar than any other placeholder syntax.
