IIRC the problem is what to do when filling
foo bar...
baz
Should it turn into
foo bar... baz
or
foo bar... baz
It should be the latter, because that preserves the fact that it
counts as a sentence end.

This wa
The patch below fixes the bug. It assumes that more than one
successive periods should allow breaking even if they are followed
by just one space.
That's not correct--it SHOULD demand two spaces or a newline,
after three periods, just as it does after one period.

That means there is nothing wro
Should the sentence commands stop also after three question marks???
And sentences can also end with three exclamation marks!!!
Yes, they can--and the sentence commands already do stop there.
I just tried this test case:
foo??? bar!!! lose.

Should the sentence commands stop also after three question m
One solution is to fix the regexp in `sentence-end' to match three
periods.
I think that is the correct fix, because the sentence commands
_should_ stop after three periods (when followed by two spaces
or a newline). It is a bug if they don't stop there.
