I just noticed a behaviour on the plugin (not sure if this is a new behaviour Update: no it's not).

After conversion, some of the punctuations are wrapped separately (specifically, ".?!").
I think it is made for "span each sentence instead of paragraph", which should be more precise on reading position or highlight.

However, in some of my books, numbers / punctuations are wrapped in a span like this:

Code:

<span class="tcy">12</span>
<span class="tcy">?!</span>

And the tags become like this after convertion (new line added by me):

Code:

<span class="tcy">
<span class="koboSpan" id="kobo.196.2">?</span>
<span class="koboSpan" id="kobo.196.3">!</span>
</span>

Which breaks the meaning that "?" and "!" should be wrapped together.

I know that "span each sentence" does have its needs, but is there any way to make it not happen on such situation? (eg. don't "span each sentence" when the book is in CJK, or make it an option)
