There is, but we have seen no evaluation of "expensive" - result is that stuff
that is essential is split over several pages...

Cite templates would benefit enormously from parser functions, instead of
jumping through hoops, simple tests can be made about whether something has a
full stop at the end already or not.

The bug should be changed form WONTFIX, keeping it at that status because of a
stray comment on a mailing list years ago, when at Wikimania 2011 Tim was
undecided as to which solution (parser functions, scripting language or
Victor's extension) was best. 

Really I have looked at all three, ANY ONE WILL DO. And if you change your mind
from parser functions to one of the others, I WILL PERSONALLY MIGRATE ALL
TEMPLATES TO THE NEW SOLUTION. 

I am re-opening this bug.  Please do not casually re-close it.
