Great. What are other punctuation characters? Are +, -, *, /, &, %
etc. punctuation characters? It sounds like one is really limited to
the list shown above.

Yes.

We are already violating the convention with `C-c .' and `C-c _' at
least. We should not continue this tradition. Lacking a good
alternative (e.g. I don't want another bunch of bindings with three
key strokes) I'd only make the key bindings used for `next-error'
available as proposed earlier.
