 Several areas can be cleaned up to make mandoc even faster.  These are 
 
-- cache `Bd' display types as `Bl' types are cached (this primarily
-  improves code-size by removing the a2disp type functions)
-
 - improve caching mechanism to handle other per-element arguments so
   that they need not be recalculated between front- and back-ends (also
-  reduces code size and complexity)
+  reduces code size and complexity):
+    `Bl -column' pointer
