   - \\ in high-level macro arguments
     Currently, \\ is expanded in two situations:
     1) macro and string definition (roff.c setstrn())
     2) macro argument parsing (mandoc.c mandoc_getarg())
     For user defined macros, the second happens in time because of ROFF_REPARSE.
     But for standard high-level macros, it only happens after entering the
     high level parsers, which is too late because the code doesn't get
     back to roff.c roff_res() from that point.  Because this requires
     distinguishing requests, user-defined macros and standard macros
     on the roff_res() level, it is hard to solve without the parser reorg.

   - Improve -O suboption parsing.  Do it in the main program such that
     errors can be reported.  Pay attention to distinguishing the
     mandoc(1) and apropos(1) styles of both options.
