Another reason for changing the formatting is that there is a new output
format being implemented, to LaTeX.  Should the 'flawed' semantics be
used for that new output format too, mimicking TeX output even when it
does not make sense?  Or should the new output be more in line with
something more consistent?  None of those options seem appealing to me.
