Comment(by sirzooro):

 If you want to use rules which use preceding character, you should also
 add few new cases:[[BR]]
 - non-breakable space, as HTML entity (` `), or entity with its dec
 or hex code;[[BR]]
 - hyphen (e.g. in "non-Wordpress");[[BR]]
 - all other punctuation marks - it is quite possible that someone will not
 enter extra space between punctuation mark and "Wordpress". Note: case
 when dot is not followed be space cannot be fixed this ways, because it
 will break URLs;[[BR]]
 - all kind of braces - some will fall under above category (missing space
 separator), some because there is no handler for used shortcode.

 BTW, I still vote for removing this completely.
