That wouldn't work for classical Latin, e.g., in "AVGVST=C3=93=C2=B7SACR"= the "=C2=B7" is not a=20 letter even though it is surrounded by letters. In general, whether a character is punctuation or a letter depends on the= =20 language. "=C2=B7" should be punctuation in English, arguably a space in= classical=20 Latin, and a letter in Catalan. Is Emacs flexible enough to do that now?
