Could do, but since . is a useful filename character it usually seems
like a good idea to include it in the set of characters considered a
`word' by the terminal double-click logic.  I've not used xterm for
ages, but a quick check shows that Eterm isn't smart enough to be told
that . followed by a word-constituent is good and should be included in
a word, whereas a trailing . is a different thing which it doesn't want
to include.

So I'm in favour of killing the full-stops.  Sorry. :-(
