[wp-testers] Code Kvetching

[Rick Beckman]

Alex,

WordPress is handling code like a champ now -- with or without your plugin
-- which is the strangest thing (it wasn't yesterday!).

Still, I'm leaving your plugin enabled as the [code] shortcode is still as
useful as can be until a CODE button can be added to the TinyMCE toolbar.

(And I'd like to experiment a bit with code highlighting too... but it's not
an immediate concern.)
