Probably allow arbitrary space around the period, namely \s*\.\s* in the
middle.  If you want to support the old-style override/revert syntax,
things are much more complex: you'd probable be best off picking the
rule actually converting _into_ xxx.xxx syntax as a template.

However, I'd lean towards "it's your own fault if you did not convert,
even if the old behavior still works" stance regarding convert-ly in
this particular case.
