This was my first reaction too, but after some thinking I can't
imagine a situation where you *really* want to prevent a line break
after two or periods.
We're talking about what sentence-end should match; that is to say,
where M-e should stop.
It should stop after an ellipsis if the ellipsis is followed by two
spaces or a newline. An ellipsis followed by just one space is not
the end of a sentence.
As for filling, it does not break the line after a period
followed by one space, because doing so would make it appear
to be the end of a sentence.
