With the multipass rules now separate (assuming the merge of
dm/simlify-passes), would it make sense to make context work for back
translation. This'd mean that "nofor context" would mean dots in the test and
characters in the action.
To try to be backward compatible, would it make sense for all five multipass
opcodes (correct, context, pass2, pass3, pass4), if unqualified, to imply
nofor? Would this, to any of your collective knowledges, break any existing
back translation(s)?
Right now, the _ (underscroe) test is silently increased to 0 if it goes
negative. This, to me, makes it nondeterministic, and, therefore, it makes the
result of the test unpredictable and potentially wrong. What do you think about
changing it so that the test fails if it goes negative since characters before
the start can't be matched?
