+- The whatis(1) utility looks for whole words in Nm.
+ If the file name of a page does not agree with the contents of any
+ of its Nm macros (e.g. pool(9)), add the file name as an Nm entry
+ to the mandoc.db as well, such that whatis(1) finds it.
+ If there is a page with a file name that does not appear as a substring
+ neither in Nm nor in Nd, the same fix would allow finding that page
+ with apropos(1) using the file name as a key, as well.

- clean up escape sequence handling, creating three classes:
(1) fully implemented, or parsed and ignored without loss of content
(2) unimplemented, potentially causing loss of content

- check compatibility with Plan9:
http://swtch.com/usr/local/plan9/tmac/tmac.an
http://swtch.com/plan9port/man/man7/man.html
- a column list with blank `Ta' cells triggers a spurrious
start-with-whitespace printing of a newline
-- double quotes inside double quotes are escaped by doubling them
- implement this in mdoc(7), too
- so far, we only have it in roff(7) and man(7)
- reminded by millert@ Thu, 09 Dec 2010 17:29:52 -0500

- In .Bl -column,
.It Em Authentication<tab>Key Length
ought to render "Key Length" with emphasis, too,
as -width 7n, not -width 11n.
The same applies to .Bl -column column widths;

+ An easy partial fix would be to just skip the first word if it starts
+ with a dot, including any following white space, when measuring.
- The \& zero-width character counts as output.
That is, when it is alone on a line between two .Pp,
we want three blank lines, not two as in mandoc.
-- When .Fn arguments exceed one output line, all but the first
- should be indented, see e.g. rpc(3);

- Also, we don't want to break the line within the argument of:
- .Fa "chtype tl"
-
- Header lines of excessive length:
Port OpenBSD man_term.c rev. 1.25 to mdoc_term.c
