Yes! FTR I would prefer that we get both <\ LT> and <\ s>, as a way to manage the new issues involving incidental white space in text blocks. I'm greedy. Having <\ n \ LT> as a visible line end is a nice thing, and reduces pressure for <\ s> as a workaround for invisible space at line ends. But that's not the only use case for <\ s>. To be clear, <\ s> (and less so <\ 0 4 0>) is also useful for visibly marking non-incidental space at the beginning of a line, as well as at the end of lines. — John
