[bug #60571] Footnote markers defeat end-of-sentence recognition

[Dave]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #60571 (project groff):

[comment #8 comment #8:]
> You _can_ use '\' in an identifier name, but you have to escape
> it, turn the escape mechanism off, or change the escape character.

It occurred to me later that that might be the case, and I sat down to devise
a better test case, but found this new comment that beat me to the punch.

It would've helped to read the error message more carefully: it didn't say, as
I thought, "error: '\' is not allowed," but "error: '\ ' is not allowed," an
important distinction.
