how about this suggestion:

That might be OK for us English speakers. An alternative might be to put
the cube error markers before the play notation (the error came before
the play), or even at the roll (it was an error to roll).
Examples:
62 ??13/7 13/11??
62?? 13/7 13/11??
??62 137/ 13/11??
I think I prefer the second, because its consistent. The error (rolling
instead of cubing) is marked after the error.
I've no idea how much this affects the layout; I'm just brainstorming.
