Why stop? You may continue patting.

I think rendered words usually follow a space or a ">". Hidden and other words that shouldn't be changed may follow "<" , quotes, slashes, and other characters.

To reduce list calls and prevent list matches when the filter doesn't match. This should be quicker and prevent log spam.

That was a editing mistake. I wrote the last filter first, added the others to explain things, and forgot to switch the positions of the variables. Sorry.

Retain and reinsert will work. [^a-z] might allow words in web addresses, tags, and hyphenated words to be modified.

Correct.
