Question thread #92

[pauamma]

It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer and in this comment thread.

Will @ shortcuts ever work in entry and comment subject lines?

[jesse_the_k]

I love the @ shortcuts(1) working almost everywhere! Is there a plan for them to work in subject lines as well?

Based on my trial-and-error, the only way to get a userhead in the subject line is with the <user name=jesse_the_k> DW-specific HTML

1: like @dw-dev= dw_dev

Better late than never: I got the impression the plan was first to iron out the myriad wrinkles of their introduction in entry and comment text, but I think this has reached the home stretch now. Which is a long-winded way to say: I don't know, but maybe.
