    Is there a way to redefine the underscore character so that the manuscript
    will not be proliferated by these ugly-looking \discretionary control
    sequences, while achieving the same effect?

path.sty does this so you can say \path|karl@cs.umb.edu| and get
optional breaks at the `@' and the `.' (and any other punctuation
character except |).  You can get path.sty from
math.utah.edu:pub/tex/bib (I think); it's also part of Eplain
(ftp.cs.umb.edu:pub/tex/eplain.tar.Z).
