bug#30217: Ambiguity in NEWS in emacs-26.0.91

[Drew Adams]

And besides - where do you stop doing this kind of thing?

Do we do something similar for characters that can
be mistaken for a period, in case you use one in an
attempt at dotted-pair syntax?

Do we do something similar for chars that can be
mistaken for a comma, inside backquoted sexps?

Do we do something similar for chars that can be
mistaken for a backquote?  An at-sign?  Ordinary
parentheses?

I really hope you reconsider this.  To me it looks
like an ugly hack that can bring only harm (including
more, not less, confusion), not good.
