I would like an escaped space to be treated punctuation for the purposes of
parsing, and removed from the output.

i.e., 

        /foo/\ *bar*

would be translated into

       <emphasis>foo</emphasis><emphasis role="bold">bar</emphasis>


Without this feature it's hard to create adjacent inline markup.
Currently you can work around this problem by defining a macro:

       [def _\_]
       /foo/_\_*bar*

But note that this only works because '_' is treated as punctuation.

       [def x]
       /foo/x*bar*

doesn't work the same way.
