[wp-testers] Change of behaviour of smilie translations andWP-Grins

[Les Bessant]

Yes, that seems to be what it's doing.

I'll do some more tests to confirm. 

But this will break things for anyone who puts two smilies in a row if there
are no spaces in their definitions.

I can see an issue here for a lot of general users who'd either have to
Google RDF[1], or wouldn't care what it is.
