Thanks for starting working on this...

The problem can be seen here... Things that start with % is valid input.
% refers to the last output. %%(n) refers to the n-th output.

Actually, I find it strange that % is used in identifiers, but %pi, for
example, is the standard way to refer to \pi.

A dot or a closing parenthesis instead of % could be an option
