tell: check if a tellee is a valid identifier #2583

Open SnoopJ opened 6 months ago

SnoopJ commented 6 months ago

Requested Feature

Filing as follow-up from #2582.

Currently, the tell plugin does no verification that a tellee is a valid identifier, but it's something we may want to consider for longer term purposes. Example cases where we will store reminders for a nick we will never see:

22:49 <+SnowJ> .tell 猫 nyaaa
22:49 <+Sopel> SnowJ: I'll pass that on when 猫 is around.
22:50 <+SnowJ> .tell shinji@NERV get in the robot
22:50 <+Sopel> SnowJ: I'll pass that on when shinji@NERV is around.
