Ubiquity Twitter command picks nonsense username by default
If I select the address of the page I'm currently on, and type "twitter this" into the Ubiquity window, by default it tries to use the selected text as the *username* to twitter as. http://www.google.com/ makes for a pretty funny username!
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Can you post what version of Ubiquity and Firefox you are using? -
Inappropriate?I'm using Ubiquity 1.8 with Firefox 3.0.8 -
Inappropriate?Thanks for reporting this. There were some recent changes to the parser/twitter command that are probably causing this.
The workaround until it is fixed is to then add "as username" at the end, and use the down arrow to select the right tweet.
I’m sorry my workaround is so inelegant.

Inappropriate?I have confirmed this happens when you try to use the twitter command with text selected. Trac ticket filed:
