    # This is the basic class for bot users: they have a username, a

    # it's not intended for permanent storage. Transient BotUsers have lower
    # priority than nontransient ones for autologin purposes.
    #
    # To initialize a BotUser, you pass a _username_ and an optional
    # hash of options. Currently, only two options are recognized:
    #
    # transient:: true or false, determines if the BotUser is transient or
    #             permanent (default is false, permanent BotUser).
    #
    #             Transient BotUsers are initialized by prepending an
    #             asterisk (*) to the username, and appending a sanitized
    #             version of the object_id. The username can be empty.
    #             A random password is generated.
    #
    #             Permanent Botusers need the username as is, and no
    #             password is generated.

    # masks::     an array of Netmasks to initialize the NetmaskList. This
    #             list is used as-is for permanent BotUsers.
    #
    #             Transient BotUsers will alter the list elements which are
    #             Irc::User by globbing the nick and any initial nonletter
    #             part of the ident.
    #
