Your question is really whether it is buggy. it looks good to me,
Really, Troy has a module for which it works. There may be a future latex, 
html, xhtml, tei, …. that might find a problem and find a bug.

There is an incomplete test suite (all test suites are incomplete!) that could 
be improved with fuller input. Maybe this too.

So much of our software development is, “works for me” I’ll go on to the next 
thing. That’s what I do. If someone finds a problem, then I’ll fix it.
