Last week Werner, following up on my proposal to allow .UE and .ME to take
arguments that are treated as trailing punctuation, asked for opinions
on the relative merits of two changes:
1) Just add the argument handling to .UE and .ME.
2) Add the argument handing, and abolish the (now redundant) second
arguments of .UR and .MT.
There was no response from the list. I don't want this change to hang
forever waiting for one if nobody cares about the issue.
Therefore, fair warning: if I don't see an objection within a reasonable time,
I'm going to implement and document the second change.
