I see what you mean---if you end up with "Modules/" and type "&", then
(with & removed from the remove-suffix list) you get "Modules/&" instead
of "Modules&" but you really want "Modules &".  However, that's a new
feature.  I think it would be doable (and probably not difficult) by
adding an additional variable (which would take precedence so you didn't
have to remove the character from the old mechanism) and a new SUFTYP
and changing makesuffix() and iremovesuffix(), but it's beyond the
capability of simple local tweaks.
