Tlint doesn't do any post-parse analysis, which is when the glyph lookup
occurs, so this isn't architecturally easy to pull off and will end up
bloating code just for a corner case.
I think a saner option is to either document the escapes as being
"dangerous" (really, all mandoc_char(7) predefined escapes are
"dangerous") or just not documenting them at all (as they don't appear
in any documentation I could find).
