Well, I don't feel like `_` really looks like a placeholder in the context of
programming. Maybe a space would fit better for only one ASCII character?

It is indeed, though good parsers should handle it not too badly. But that
might be a valid point indeed. I guess ideally the snippet could provide the
placeholder, to expand like:
```
def [function_name]([arguments]):
"""[documentation]"""
[body]
```
with `[]` representing the indicator range. But that's a whole other story.
@codebrainz @elextr opinions on that?
