We can already handle improper lists as "(a . b)" or "a(. b)".
In the past, we've also been able to express improper lists using indentation processing: foo a . b When I added the trivial support for "." as an indentation character, I unintentionally disabled the ability to express improper lists during indentation. I don't think this is hard to restore; we just need to NOT consider "." as an indentation character if it precedes newline. My earlier proposed rule that "." is only an indentation character when followed by space or newline would, as a side-effect, have the same effect. --- David A.
