Description
Consider the "E.g. " below:
Some thoughts:
- The space between "E.g." and "list" seems a bit wide, is it possible LaTeX is generating a sentence-space? Should maybe "\ " be used? (Or maybe even "~", to prevent a line break.)
- In the vast majority of cases, the document actually has a comma after "e.g.". Maybe that's the way to go here, too?
- Starting a sentence with the "e.g." abbreviation could be considered poor style to begin with. Maybe nicer to just say "For example,"

Ok great, thanks! I'll make a patch. This will help cxxdraft-htmlgen's sentence-splitting, too.
Escape spaces following mid-sentence periods.
