Re: [alreq] Line breaking rules (#237)

Those requirements can be generalized to:

1. No line should begin with sentence, clause or phrase-ending punctuation.
2. No line should end with sentence, clause or phrase-starting punctuation. (*)
3. No paired punctuation should appear on a line that does not contain some of the contents enclosed by the pair.

(*) this rule applies, for example,  to Spanish use of inverted question and exclamation marks - it's easier to treat them as an anti-parallel case to sentence-ending punctuation instead of having regular question and exclamation mark have a dual nature by sometimes treating them as  part of a pair...

These rules can the be combined with those that govern whether and how words themselves can be broken.
