* dired.el (dired-move-to-filename-regexp): Do not distinguish between ASCII letters and non-ASCII characters. Don't allow comma except in the form "month day, year". Don't allow space between month name and comma. Clean up the code that checks for trailing period, comma, and space. Remove now-obsolete comments, and add more commentary about Japanese dates. Always gobble up trailing spaces, instead of doing it only sometimes.

;;; Commentary:

;; This mode provides a hook which is, by default, attached to various
;; putatively dangerous commands in a (probably futile) attempt to
;; prevent lusers from shooting themselves in the feet.

;;; Code:

;; This function is called (by autoloading)
;; to handle any disabled command.
;; The command is found in this-command
;; and the keys are returned by (this-command-keys).
