Description
When the last thing before automatically added ellispsis is a dot, we end-up with four consecutives dots.
While rare, it is not really visually appealing. We should find a solution to add space between the point and the ellipsis when last character shown is already a punctuation mark.
This ellipsis is fully managed by the browser, I did not really find a not hackish solution so far.

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by locating the frontend text element where the browser adds the ellipsis, then reproduce the case where the final visible character is a dot or other punctuation. Done means punctuation and the automatically added ellipsis are separated so four consecutive dots are not shown.
