mk, a better idea: allowing the at-mention to use a second argument as a display name. For example:

  @thenewgreen|TNG@ has been of great service to Hubski!

turns into:

TNG has been of great service to Hubski!

If I understand correctly, all you have to do is tweak the parser a little for possible presence of second argument.
