No blame intended (and no "git blame" run). I cc'ed you as the doc
sheriff ;)

The change above was really about using the place holder name
consistently, which includes keeping the "-args".

I was behind an idiotic firewall for the last 2 weeks which not only
blocked vpn and nntp but made it impossible to get larger chunks over
git:, git+ssh: or even scp (bundle) even though bandwidth was no
apparent issue. One of those countries which are currently argueing with
RIM. Makes you wonder how routinely they do content sniffing and how
they react to any (false) triggers. Might also have been an overly eager
institution, of course.

So I didn't see Jonathan's series in time.

I did some experimenting after noticing that I had many broken ~ (either
disappearing or appearing with spurious \ in the html). I might even
have come up with a rule, but I'm afraid these things change from
asciidoc version to asciidoc version, so that I went the chatty {tilde}.
