Just for the record, I am all in favor of changing the gloss for pb, lb 
and cb to  * beginning.  If we ever want to do this, we do it better 
now.  Since it does not involve changes to the Schemas (except maybe to 
the popup part of the documentation), I think it would be still 
allowable.  OTOH, we might have more pressing problems...
