Not a bad idea.  I'd like it to have a 'draft' and 'final' mode, so that
I don't have to toggle several settings to go from papyrus with normal
hyphenation to paper with professional hyphenation, etc.

I find it annoying that '=@@' turns into something other than '=
\infty', and that '= |x' or '|x|=' doesn't do what I want unless I type
a space between the = and the next character.  I think that for the
commonly used ones like that, that the automatic combining ought to only
happen if I push Tab after typing it, and that normally it comes out as
two separate characters.  So if I type '=@@' I get '= \infty', and if I
type '=@Tab', I get '\eqcirc'.  If I type '|=' I should get '| =', and
if I type '|=Tab', I should get '\models'.
