Can some kind soul please enlighten me as to the purpose of the
"Entity end" (out-of-band) "signal" and it's use in SGML documents?  I
got so far as to understand how you would represent it (ASCII NUL or
DEL seem to fit the description very nicely), but as to the rationale
for its existence, I'm at a complete loss.

If you think this is narrow interest, mail me.  If I get enough
replies like this, I'll summarize.  Would prefer to use the group,
though.
