Can Emacs be smartish about sentence-end spacing? look at the periods and spaces between sentences in a paragraph and interpret according to use which is common in the wild wild web. If I do according to the suggestion won’t I miss out on double space endings between sentences? I want all possible worlds.

I should have posted this to help-emacs first.
