Would it be worth adding 'special handling' for "..." the way we do "---"? Are there other things in this ballpark we could handle?

You question motivated me to improve the screen rendering of ellipsis. I did not use the unicode character U+2026 because it is not followed by a space like \ldots is.

Notes that the space after ldots is not a very good idea. babel/french says:

%    Unless a ready-made character is available in the current font,
%    LaTeX’s default definition of |\textellipsis| includes a |\kern| at
%    the end; this space is not wanted in some cases (before a closing
%    brace for instance) and |\kern| breaks hyphenation of the next
%    word.  We define |\FBtextellipsis| for French (in LaTeX only) the
%    same way but without the last |\kern|.
%
%    LY1 has a ready made character for |\textellipsis|, it should be
%    used in French.  The same is true for Unicode fonts in use
%    with XeTeX and LuaTeX.
