Was it not "That" who said it ;-) Ok, on a more serious note, I don't
think it'll be a big problem since:
1. If you write the paragraph on one line, this won't happen.
2. Or just put a space after 'That'...
3. I think the text "...Happiness -- That" should actually be entered as:
...Happiness — That

Looks good to me. For that matter, I wouldn't mind prohibiting the space
completely (although I think should still be rendered with a space).
A note though: Something like this will also trigger the pattern:
' --Verbose-Option'
maybe in the case of a space in front, we should require there to be
something more than just spaces in front?
"(?:^|(?:[^\\s]\\s))--\\s?($UserNamePattern)\\$".
Or will this not be a problem since there is no user called
'Verbose-Option'?
