[lojban] lojban typography

I typeset and printed "lo nu binxo", translated by xorxes, for reading
it when I'm away from a computer.

I've not found any suggestion for typesetting lojban so I thought we
could put together something.

For example:
    - {ni'o} always starts a new paragraph
    - {.i} never appears at the end of a line by itself
    - {.i} is surrounded by x% more space
    - the dot of {.i} is enlarged by x% or rendered in bold
    - Capter, Sections, subsections etc are numbered using more than
one {pi} : "1.2.5 ..." {ni'o papirepimu ...}
    - footnotes should be ....???
    - bullet lists ???
    - if not omitted, {fa'e} must be typeset on a separated line
    - ...

I'm not suggestion a "Chicago Manual of style", but just some common
rules we all can agree.

Of course, once agreed, we would need some good examples to show.

I think it would be good to be able to show well-looking lojban books.
