I was very interested to see this thread because when I posted a query on the same subject some time ago I got no replies. For one book I fixed all the instances manually but it was a lot of work. For another, I just gave up and left it, because on looking at other books by regular publishing houses I found quite a few which had done the same. But I don't think it looks good so I shall definitely try Marcelo's solution next time.
