Currently, Redcarpet renders
x^y,(whereyis the non-parenthesized substring up to but excluding whitespace or the end of string) asx<sup>y,</sup>. The same occurs with other clausal stop punctuation (.,?,!,:, or;). See, for example, the comma inside the exponent (i.e.,10<sup>6,</sup>, not10<sup>6</sup>,) in the Mastodon (glitch-soc) post screenshot here.This patch stops non-parenthesized superscripts before
,,.,?,!,:, or;, in the same manner aschar_superscriptstops them beforeor\n, sox^y,gets rendered asx<sup>y</sup>,. With the patch applied, if a user does want to include clausal stop punctuation in a superscript, they can still do so using parentheses. This seems to be a more likely expected behaviour.
