An official inclusion of something like a parse will make incident like this become more common and worse! I started playing MMO 15 years ago, and parser had existed since then, probably even before that. It has always seen demand, yet not a single MMO that I had played include a parser as an official feature. It's not just a SE's thing, but pretty much every MMO developing teams have reason, very good reason of not officially support it. Again, I don't call for the bane of its existence, but this is a feature that should always remain as an unofficial tool, you need detterent against muppetry.
