 Problem is no one really knows all the working of that code (the matching code,
which is really in regex I think).

 This is not something I want to look into right now.  I think the entire
conversation stuff needs to get redone at some point.

 I think the regex currently in crossfire is actually fairly out of date, and
certainly has a few custom hacks.  It should probably get redone/updated, but I
don't really want to touch that right now - if even some obscure bug in new
code, that could really break a fair number of maps.
