\\ must behave in a macro def like in a macro argument,
and when using the macro, it must expand yet again.
-- implement \s (physical font size)
- \sN - set to N
- \s+N - increment by N, 1 <= N <= 8
- \s-N - decrement by N, 1 <= N <= 8
- \s0 - restore previous size
- \s(nn \s+-(nn \s'+-nn' \s+-'nn' \s[+-nn] \s+-[nn] - disambiguate
- registers: .s .ps .sr .psr
- used by e.g. cu(1), tip(1)
-
- look at bsd.lv tbl(1)

also look at the mail from Thomas Klausner wiz at NetBSD

+ joerg@ has patches for this somewhere...
- look at pages generated from reStructeredText, e.g. devel/mercurial hg(1)
These are a weird mixture of man(7) and custom autogenerated low-level
- have a blank `It' head for `Bl -tag' not puke
-- ignore horrendous m[] font colouring
- reported by J.C. Roberts
-
- prohibit `Nm' from having non-text HEAD children
(e.g., NetBSD mDNSShared/dns-sd.1)
(mdoc_html.c and mdoc_term.c `Nm' handlers can be slightly simplified)

+- allow `Qq', `Dq', `Sq', `Aq', `Bq' to have 0 arguments

- perl(1) SYNOPSIS looks bad; reported by deraadt@
- 1) "\ " is non-breaking
- 2) man(7) seems to need SYNOPSIS .Nm blocks, too
+ 1) man(7) seems to need SYNOPSIS .Nm blocks, too
- empty phrases in .Bl column produce too few blanks
try e.g. .Bl -column It Ta Ta

-- .Pp before and after .Sh (and .Ss) produces a spurious blank line;

+- rendering frontend code can calculate widths only for plain strings,
+ not for strings containing escape sequences. For example, this
+ hinders calculation of the indent required for .Nm \&[ in text(1).
