@BambOoxX not at the moment. The code in question is here:

SymbolicML/DynamicQuantities.jl/blob/a3343989957e74aae53a0ad3d32b0d852324e674/src/utils.jl#L300-L313


      
          Base.show(io::IO, d::AbstractDimensions) =
              let tmp_io = IOBuffer()
                  for k in filter(k -> !iszero(d[k]), keys(d))
                      print(tmp_io, dimension_name(d, k))
                      isone(d[k]) || pretty_print_exponent(tmp_io, d[k])
                      print(tmp_io, " ")
                  end
                  s = String(take!(tmp_io))
                  s = replace(s, r"^\s*" => "")
                  s = replace(s, r"\s*$" => "")
                  print(io, s)
              end
          Base.show(io::IO, q::UnionAbstractQuantity{<:Real}) = print(io, ustrip(q), " ", dimension(q))
          Base.show(io::IO, q::UnionAbstractQuantity) = print(io, "(", ustrip(q), ") ", dimension(q))

With pretty_print_exponent handling the conversion to a superscript.

Not sure the best way to allow user customization, any advice? Maybe we could allow different MIME types to trigger different behavior?

(PRs welcome btw)
