+       * Plugin message mapper: new implementation. Multi-word parameters now
+       need not be the last, and it is possible to retrieve the entire
+       substring with preserved whitespace by using to_s. Also, parts of the
+       map string can be bracketed to make them optional. Examples:
+               remind :user [about] *stuff
+       will respond to
+               remind me about washing my teeth
+       and also to
+               remind me washing my teeth
+       It is possible to have parameters in brackets, in which case they will
+       be optional too, and default to nil or [] (resp. single- and
+       multi-word parameters) unless an alternative is provided in the
+       :defaults hash for the message map options.
