If I get it correctly, the following two formulae should render

$(2,5)$ versus $(2, 5)$

Spaces in math mode are ignored because the spacing is controlled by different
rules.

\m{1.2}\par

I always thought that autopunctuation was targetted towards the European
tradition of using comma as a decimal separator. That behavior can be
achieved by changing a comma to be an "ord" from a "punctuation".
However, changing the comma to an "ord" has the drawback that you have to
explicitly add spaces when comma is needed as a punctuation, for example
in sets:
\m{A = \{a,\, b,\, c\}}
Autopunctuation is supposed to get around this: if comma is followed by a
non-space, the comma should behave like an "ord"; if it is followed by a
space, it should behave like a "punctuation". Clearly that is not
happening.
