Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jesse, I know what you really mean, and I'm going to change the code so
IF (user="Jesse") THEN dont_show_any_emails_because_she's_weird

Damn you're quick. That's great. Thankyou.

One thing we haven't done is change this:
You may use HTML or quick-edit formatting.
to, say:
You may use HTML or quick-edit formatting. But be careful! Bad code -- links and tables particularly -- can cause big problems.
Do others think this is necessary? It would appear above every posting box. It seems cluttery to me - I'd rather wait for the Stompomatic to be installed - but I'll defer to popular opinion.

Works just fine in HyperTalk, except for the quote:
on mouseUp
put "jesse" into user
IF (user="Jesse") THEN
dont_show_any_emails_because_shes_weird
end if
end mouseUp
on dont_show_any_emails_because_shes_weird
answer "I know, I know"
end dont_show_any_emails_because_shes_weird

I think people know to be careful, especially if they've made a mistake once already.
How about a mention in the HTML page though?
