   - .als only works for macros in mandoc, not for user-defined strings.
     Also, the "val" field in struct roffkv would have to be replaced
     with a pointer to a reference-counted wrapper, and an alias
     would have to point to the same wrapper as the original.
     .als to undefined does nothing; the alias is not created.
     .rm'ing the original leaves the alias to point to the old value.
     .de .als .de changes both, but
     .de .als .rm .de only changes the new value, not the alias.

   - roff string condition comparisons fail when vars contain quotes:
     .ds s '
     .if '\*s'' \&...
     hard to fix because of the basic architecture (string replacement
     happens before roff(7) syntax parsing)
