While this behavior sometimes annoys me, it's intentional. barnowl knows
about un- and -.d classes, and strips all "un" and ".d" strings to get a
base class, and then creates a filter that includes any number of un and
.d prefixes and suffixes.
It might be nice to have an option that controls whether this behavior
happens.
I forgot if it's been fixed or whether it's in the locker, but ":vc
message" is or will be a workaround.
