[fragment] is either discouraged or forbidden in the docs.  With
the docs doing auto-ragged-right for short ones, and in any case
it's easy enough to add [ragged-right] if you really want.

We should remove that behavior.  [fragment] should simply add the
{...} container; nothing more, nothing less.
