gaaaaaaaaah, yuck.
i'm really not liking that.
this sorta makes me reconsider the behavior about accepting messages
with duplicate keywords.  worse still, we've got:

#$#say 123345 what*: "" what: "Hats off" _data-tag abc
#$#* abc what: Hats on
#$#END abc

which means you've got to be careful to throw away those additional
lines.  yuck yuck yuck yuck yuck.  i dunno.  is there widespread
insistence that this should be legal?
