OK I went with that. I also used real spanish hyphenated words in the
hword examples. I also changed the domains foo.com to example.com, just
because I'm anal enough to do it.
The hword_asciipart I'm not 100% sure about. I used this:
militar in the context político-militar, or postgresql in the
context postgresql-beta1
What I wanted to emphasize here is that it's the "ascii-ness" of the
part that matters, not that of the complete token. The reason I'm not
sure about it is that it makes the table wider.
