Re: comma ellipses

It’s deliberately incorrect for humorous effect. It gets used, but making it “official” would almost defeat the purpose.

Well then it should encode a "typographically incorrect" comma ellipsis :)

I thought the main reason we ended up with the period (dot) one is because it was originally needed for CJK-style fixed grid layout purposes. But It could be wrong.

What's the current status for 3-dot ellipsis. Does it get used? Do we have autocorrect for it? If so, that would argue that implementers have settled and any derivative usage (comma) should be kept compatible.
