I'm thinking that an autocomplete/suggestion functionality would probably easier to implement, and just as useful.

It might be useful. My worry is that it would interfere with writing. I imagine it would have to be a window of suggestions, which would hover over the text field - on a forum where nothing overshadows nothing (except header, and it does so gracefully).

Not arguing you should put more work in than you have to, and not saying what I suggest is necessary, but it could be a nice little thing to allow Hubskifolk to address (while mentioning) each other with affectionates.
