Maybe we discussed it privately with Karl, but I didn't find a
corresponding mail either.  The only hint I found was about some enblend
manual that used @if* commands on lines, which was needed before
@inline* commands, but it is not very clear whether it was also about
@set not being at the beginning of line.  I had a look and there does
not seems to be any @set not at the beginning of line in the enblend
manual (enblend-enfuse-4.1.5).
