Probably intentional!

I'm guessing that post has a <raw-code> block, because that's how to make artisan markup like your nav thingy not explode. Raw blocks now leave @ mentions alone.

We recently put a lot of effort into making @ mentions behave reliably, and making sure they DON'T trigger where they shouldn't. MOST NOTABLY, we no longer convert @ mentions in the following places:

- Entries/comments that are set to "don't autoformat".
- Inside <raw-code> / <lj-raw> blocks.
- Inside <code>, <pre>, or <textarea> elements.
- Anything imported from LJ et al.
- Anything from syndicated feed accounts.

We decided "raw" needed to be sort of an escape hatch that doesn't do any "auto" stuff to your markup, because there really needed to be SOME way to do that. So you can still link to users in there, but you'll need to use old-style <user name="yo"> tags.
