Description Rigo Wenning 2017-08-21 15:59:42 UTC

The W3C Team uses a private IRC server for its internal worldwide communication. Within this private IRC server there is a distinction between local channels (following the &channel convention) and public channels (following the #channel convention). 

The latest version of Konversation adds a "#" sign to all channel strings typed after the join command. This is also true for joining via the menus or the channel list. Typing "/j &channel" results in joining "#&channel" whatever join mechanism is used. Expectation is that "/j &channel" results in joining channel "&channel".

Evidently joining normal public #channels works, even if the #is omitted on the input line.

Fix prefix-addressed message handling

Messages sent to all channel operators or other mode-prefixed classes of
channel members could use flags that conflict with channel prefix flags.
This tries harder to ensure that the actual channel prefix is found.
