Feedback ยท /me's command (needs discussion)

It would be nice if there was a /me's command that not only adds ** around your text, but also makes your post start with a 's.

in its current form you can do this by adding a *'s, but this also introduces a space before your post:

John 's car is really big.

F-list has this feature as well and removes the space before the apostrophe, making your post appear as:

John's car is really big.

Is there any way this could be implemented? Or as a consolidation, just add a 's after using /me's?

I thought about this for a bit in chat and semantically, I can't imagine a time someone would write *'s at the beginning of their post (with a space afterwards) and not mean to effectively write something in the possessive. E.g. *'s got a boat* - Fred's got a boat.

Should be a thing only in IC mode, if at all.

Korra

Should it? I could imagine writing about myself in the possessive in OOC.

I dont see why this only needs to be for IC, sometimes you want to talk possessively about things in an OOC manner.
