This allows us to do either:

hubot tell parkr Hi!

or:

hubot tell @parkr Hi!

:)

I have a feeling we need something in hubot's core like robot.userPattern. Adapters could customize that so slack supports @, but only returns the user. We have a ton of places that could use that in our own hubot.

Yeah that does sound like it could be useful for a lot of scripts. At the very least it would simplify handling of username mentions,
