Public bug reported:
u8_totitle() fails to handle "." as a word separator, though the dot is
commonly used without any space-character where initials precede a surname.
for example, the street address "Largo A.Gemelli"is rendered "Largo A.gemelli"
I find it necessary to include the dot (.), comma (,), opening and
closing parentheses [(,)], hyphen (-), single and double quotes (',"),
and the forward slash (/) as word separators; but the dot (.) is the
most common, after the correctly-handled space ( ).
I have libunistring 0.9.10-2
under Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
lsb_release -rd
