Currently it is not specified whether first or last local variables 
section should be taken if several ones are found at the end of the 
document. I think, picking the last one will allow to suppress local 
variables examples above using purely *plain text* "markup" without 
pitfalls with control characters.

"First pattern within last 3000 characters" is a quite peculiar rule to 
my taste.
