was getting disabled in far more places than it should have
been, and because there appears to be no mechanism for
reënabling it when departing the appropriate nested scope, it's
- simpler to just stop trying. Making this change had no
- measurable effect on formatting of groff_mdoc(7), except with
- respect to {1} URL link text, which has seen heavy
- revision since groff 1.23.0 anyway (and see below); {2} material
- between `Rs` and `Re` macros is now subject to automatic

- to automatic hyphenation. The latter two changes seem correct.
+ simpler to just stop trying. Making this change had little
+ effect on formatting of groff_mdoc(7), except for the following.
+ {1} URL link text, when it was the URL itself (as on output
+ devices that don't support hyperlinking) was undesirably
+ hyphenated, but see below;
+ {2} text not otherwise marked up between `Rs` and `Re` macros
+ is now subject to automatic hyphenation; and
+ {3} text marked with the `Me` macro is now subject to
+ automatic hyphenation.
+ Changes {2} and {3} seem correct.
(Lk): Macro now does what more mdoc(7) documents should probably
have already been doing: employ the `\%` escape sequence in
appropriate places. (Alternatively, those who enjoy mandoc(1)'s
