- check for missing roff escape sequences, implement those that are

trivial even if not usually appearing in manual pages, gracefully

ignore the non-trivial ones, document what they are supposed to do

and what mandoc does instead

- .Bd -centered implies -filled, not -unfilled, which is not

easy to implement; it requires code similar to .ce, which

we don't have either.

Besides, groff has bug causing text right *before* .Bd -centered

to be centered as well.

loc *** exist *** algo ** size ** imp ** (parser reorg would help)

- .Bd -filled should not be the same as .Bd -ragged, but align both

the left and right margin. In groff, it is implemented in terms

of .ad b, which we don't have either. Found in cksum(1).

Line 172 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

Line 155 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

--- missing tbl features -----------------------------------------------

- the "s" layout column specifier is used for placement of data

into columns, but ignored during column width calculations

- .IP wants vertical spacing before itself;

currently, it is formatted like .Bl -compact.

Fixing this requires getting rid of the "float"

in the CSS for .Bl-tag first.

Reminded by Pali Rohar 25 Oct 2018 10:10:35 +0200.

- format multiple subsequent .IP as a single list

rather than opening a new list for each item
