Suppose we used

C! C c for cube very bad/bad/doubtful and
M! M m for chequer play very bad/bad/doubtful

These are distinct and wouldn't occur in normal move
annotations. Wether or not they are suitable for other languages is a
different question. The choice of letters could be configurable. How
it would work for languages such as Japanese is an issue I can't
speculate on.
