Previously we used our own homespun formatting. But this produces over-long lines that aren't ideal for diffs in tests. Easier to use something off-the-shelf and standard. Closes #7580. Performance is slower by about a factor of 10, but this isn't really a problem because native isn't suitable as a serialization format. (For serialization you should use json, because the reader is so much faster than native.)

Pandoc recognizes an abbreviation and inserts a nonbreaking space (among other things, this prevents a sentence-ending space from being inserted in LaTeX output).
% pandoc -t native
Mr. Bob
^D
[ Para [ Str "Mr.\160Bob" ] ]
If you don't want this to happen you can escape the period:
% pandoc -t native
Hi Mr\. Bob
^D
[ Para [ Str "Hi", Space, Str "Mr.", Space, Str "Bob" ] ]
