-Instead of a dry technical overview, I am going to explain the
-structure of this module based on its history. I consult at a company
-that generates customer leads primarily by having websites that
-attract people (e.g. lowering loan values, selling cars, buying real
-estate, etc.). For some reason we get more than our fair share of
-profane leads. For this reason I was told to write a profanity checker.

-For the data that I was dealing with, the profanity was most often in
-the email address or in the first or last name, so I naively started
-filtering profanity with a set of regexps for that sort of data. Note
-that both names and email addresses are unlike what you are reading
-now: they are not whitespace-separated text, but are instead labels.

-Therefore full support for profanity checking should work in 2
-entirely different contexts: labels (email, names) and text (what you
-are reading). Because open-source is driven by demand and I have no
-need for detecting profanity in text, only label is implemented at the
-moment. And you know the next sentence: "patches welcome" :)
