Module text_detect 

Identifiers inside free text: links, email addresses, mentions and room aliases found in a run of prose.

The shaping path runs this over every TextKind::Prose run, so a link in a chat message, an address in a mail body or a handle in a note is set as what it is — TextKind::Url or TextKind::Identifier — with no app involvement. Apps that want to act on the same spans (open a link, resolve a mention) call identifier_spans and get exactly the ranges the text is drawn with.

The scan is a pure function of the text: whitespace-separated words, trimmed of the punctuation prose wraps them in, then classified. It runs in one pass over the bytes and allocates only for what it finds.
