We received a request to have the Term boundary class in UAX #29's Sentence Boundaries be a regular property. Currently it is a proper subset of the property Terminal_Punctuation, but is the only boundary class in UAX #29 that is just a big ol' list: not a derived from other properties (possibly with a small list of exceptions). So the proposal for discussion is:

1. Make a new property in Prop_List called Sentence_Terminal (STerm), with the contents listed in (A) below.
2. Modify UAX #29 so that Term = STerm - ATerm.
   • UAX #29 should also add a note that the following should be added to Term in a Greek tailoring:

     U+003B # (;) Po SEMICOLON
     U+037E # (;) Po GREEK QUESTION MARK

The proposed list (A) is followed by two comparison lists:

(B) characters in Terminal_Punctuation that are not in STerm, and
(C) characters in General_Category = Other_Punctuation (Po) that are not in Terminal_Punctuation.

By the way, with a casual look at these lists, it seems like some of the characters should be moved up from C to B and from B to A; for example, if COMMA qualifies for Terminal_Punctuation it seems that AEGEAN WORD SEPARATOR DOT should also.
