the tag ->> seems OK but I understand the objection raised by Stephan. A
null character could be useful to resolve ambiguities.
For instance:
->>blah, blah
gives:
>blah, blah ...
blah, blzh.
but ->>NULLblah, blah,
gives:
blah, blah ...
blah, blzh.
The NULL character is a terminator for all tags but is rendered by nothing.
In fact the problem is more general: Is the parsing stopped as soon as a
tag is recognized or is the parsing is pursued till the longest tag is
recognized ?
This typical parsing problem is a good reason to choice tags that are
not the head part of another tag.
