I checked d1029bb5a26c, and based on that, the doc change overall looks good to me.
I have a small observation regarding "e.g.”.
Since "e.g." is equivalent to "for example," and "for example" is commonly followed by a comma, my impression was that
"e.g."should also follow one. I did a quick search across all SGML files to check the existing convention:
```
chaol@ChaodeMacBook-Air postgresql % grep -RohF --include='*.sgml' 'e.g.' . | wc -l
328
chaol@ChaodeMacBook-Air postgresql % grep -RohF --include='*.sgml' 'e.g.,' . | wc -l
239
chaol@ChaodeMacBook-Air postgresql % grep -RohF --include='*.sgml' 'e.g.:' . | wc -l
55
chaol@ChaodeMacBook-Air postgresql % grep -RohF --include='*.sgml' 'e.g. ' . | wc -l
31
```
It looks like the usage isn't entirely consistent, but the vast majority use a following punctuation mark. Only about
1/10use "e.g." followed only by a space.
While the inconsistency is already there and a dedicated cleanup might not be worthwhile, my preference is still to
limitthe inconsistency.
