People who don't care for this distinction can write "A quotation ending without punctuation" [cite: @hoel-71-whole]. "A quotation ending with a period" [cite: @hoel-71-whole]. So I guess the default doesn't matter in this case? > What about some sort of escaping for punctuation that should stay > outside the quotation marks? > "A quotation ending without punctuation" [cite: @hoel-71-whole]\. > > But, of course, that's imperfect as well.

You (and others) may want to try it out on real documents and see if it feels somewhat natural. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
