"some accidentally chosen 8-bit character" is a much better choice than "?".
At least different chars are shown with different glyphs.  And you will not
mixup these unrecognized chars with a "true" "?".

Why not show them as ?234 which an appropriate highlight (here 234 is the octal
code of the input byte)?
