Hi, Ingo and Branden!
As far as I know, there's currently no tool that warns on "foo. bar" in
filled test. Not `mandoc -Tlint`, and not `groff -ww`, and not `groff
-rCHECKSTYLE=999`. I know that CHECKSTYLE is not designed in a way that
could catch this easily, but maybe -ww or -Tlint could.

For groff, at least, the fundamental change is straightforward. I can
