On the screenshot below, clicking on the avatars for @tobiaseigen or @watchmanmonitor should, methinks, pop up their user card info. Right now it takes me straight to their profile page which is annoying. I just want to learn about this new user quickly and reply.

Something is off somewhere eg.

> Hey there! The author of highlight.js here slight_smile@codinghorror is spot on: indeed this code is recognized as something else because there’s enough of interesting stuff happening within the comment. This is one of the cases where heuristics fails and that’s why we have the ability to set the language explicitly — don’t refrain from using it! Having said that, I think it will be possible to improve our heuristics across the board so highlighting of this comment will probably be fixed as…

Completely off topic but that is because his post was blocked by Akismet initially before it was released. Can we fix this @eviltrout?
