Interesting, I was thinking about something similar recently:
A user should be able to define or augment a database such that
many-to-most ties are done automatically:
a~propos
Dr.~[A-Z]
[1--9]~CE % historical dates
[1--9]~{\sc CE}
This issue is analogous to hyphenation: one could have rules for each
language etc.
I guess this is a mkiv issue, not a luatex issue per se.
Best wishes
Idris
