This works for text-expansion snippets too. All of the text expansions that I do with Alfred (other tools might work, too) are all comma phrases. I realize that writing English or even programming scripts/tag, I'd never (not so far) encounter a word or text that starts with a comma immediately followed by anything. I used to use period but have stumbled on instances such as file extension where a period can be followed by words.

Agreed. I prefer using `!bang`s for the same reason for expanding text.
