Follow-up and further thoughts:

Re: Caveat #1 - 
I went back and tried this again after making sure that the ES authority
mapping on my test box was correct and complete. The linker still failed to
link the headings. I am now wondering if bug #24269 could be the root cause of
that, rather than a shortcoming on the patch for this bug. I tried to apply the
patch for 24269 on top of the patch for this bug, but it failed to apply (I
know it has already been signed off, though).

Re: Caveat #2 - 
*If* one wanted to build a list of exceptions of authority punctuation that
would need to be kept, here are a few places to start (from an incomplete
U.S./Library of Congress perspective):
- etc.
- B.C.
- A.D.
- a period following a single letter (as in an initial)
- Dr.
- Jr.
- Mrs.
- Co.
- Dept.
- Inc.
- hyphen (-)
- closing parenthesis )
- question mark ?
- exclamation point !

If this is the path taken, I strongly recommend this list be expanded to be
inclusive of punctuation and abbreviations used in authority records of
languages other than American English. It could probably use a few more English
exceptions, too.
