@Christoph: Just (finally) understood what you meant with "breaking the comment". I \
uploaded a new patch that (hopefully) fixes the issue in the correct way. @Thomas: \
The approach was meant to be naive. In this simple form, this patch takes care of all \
index-like cases as well as most other short garbage titles without further parsing. \
What would be the point of actually knowing if a very short title was actually a doi \
or an index?
