    [docs]: Be more careful with control characters.
    
    ...when they are word-initial in filled text lines.
    
    The idea is to prevent baffling surprises if a sentence is recast in a
    text editor, and a word beginning with a dot or neutral apostrophe is
    reflowed onto the beginning of the next input line--suddenly it is
    parsed as a control character.
