Option to disable 'adjust grammar' in custom triggers
I have two custom triggers, rather rubbishly named #Status and #FullSentences.I post status-specific updates to one (because 'said:' and 'says' annoy the hell out of me), and, er, full sentence updates to the other.
The trouble is, I have enabled 'adjust grammar' for my default updates, for the times when I just want to update all my services.
However, with 'adjust grammar' enabled for my default, when I post "has had a cookie" to #Status, all my updates end up sounding like, "Rammi says has had a cookie" or "Rammi said: has had a cookie", which is obviously not grammatically correct.
Sorry for the long post, but could you please give me the option to disable 'adjust grammar' in my custom triggers? I want it enabled for my default, but not for when I just want to update my status.

Inappropriate?We have a simple way to get around the problem you mention. If you put a % in front of your phrase, we will adjust grammar where only your name in front instead of "said:". This unifies all the other sites with "Rammi has had a cookie". (in your example, some sites may have your name in front, some may not, so we adjust them all to match).
