Bug in web editor parsing %d%% placeholder

Bug reports
#1

I’d like to report a possible bug on the web editor interface, related to placeholders.

I have a source value for a number and a percent sign: %d%%, which will be e.g. “81%”. In a localized language, I want to add a (non-breaking) space between the number and the percent sign.

The web editor UI thinks that the placeholder is %d%, and will report a “Missing placeholder” error for my translation “%d %%”.

Hey,
You can ignore any validation rule if incorrect by clicking the “Ignore validation issue” icon.

Thank you, @janbilek. Of course, the warning caused by the incorrect rule can be ignored. I created this bug report so that it shouldn’t even trigger a validation error in the future. The UI should parse %d as the placeholder, not %d%.
