Comment(by darkrain42):

 Replying to [comment:7 jts]:
 > @darkrain42: I'm not sure I follow. The code in question
 (creating/finding the conv tab) shouldn't execute for a headline message
 regardless of the smileys, correct? I was trying to make a minimal-change
 patch, ie, only opt-out the conv tab for headlines rather than enumerate
 the opt-in cases.

 Minimal is good (at least, IMHO), but the advantage of opt-in is that the
 code really should only be creating a conversation and parsing for custom
 smileys in the cases where the message will be displayed with the smileys,
 which is why I believe it is correct to enumerate the allowed cases
 (alternatively, one could explicitly disallow the incorrect cases of
 error, headline, etc...)
