+%    The raise-action of this macro actually is run-of-the-mill.  However, two things have to be
+%    pointed out: Firstly, the amount to raise it is determined by a length with a different
+%    name.  In particular, \cs{capitalcolon} does not have its own length associated to it.
+%    Secondly, the box raised is not a plain colon but the expansion of \cs{textcolon}.
