 something else?

 That's right, as @SergeyBiryukov found in [comment:21].

 Replying to [comment:29 joyously]:
 > I like that `ex: #ff00bb` kind of thing, as long as that makes sense in
 other languages.

 That's my concern, that `ex:` or `e.g.` wouldn't have a short abbreviation
 in other languages.

 > If not that, I think the `#RRGGBB` is very useful, even though it's
 English words that those are initial letters for.
 > This ticket doesn't take into account that the color picker is very
 limited in that it only accepts hex values, and no alpha, and no color
 keywords. These enhancements could come along and then this placeholder is
 moot.

 I think `#RRGGBB` is probably the best fallback placeholder text, even if
 `R` and `G` are not valid hex digits, as it's a placeholder not a default
 value to be re-used.
