At some point, we need to just move on with this. As to ,.., I suggest 
is it not visually very distinct in many fonts (the comma and the .) and 
may lead to frustrating syntax errors.

While there are many "programmers' fonts" that do a good job making the 
characters all distinguishable, the language shouldn't rely too heavily 
on that. There's already enough trouble with 0 and O.
