Title
Facebook Reference HTML

Short, concise description of the idea
Provide a short HTML syntax for referencing FB users, equivalent to the notation.

Full description of the ideaI recently had my first FB friend comment on a post. It made me realize there is no easy way to refer to him and link to his FB as I can with LJ posts. I'm suggesting

That would provide a way for other systems to refer to LJ. I don't see how that suggestion fixes the problem of when I'm writing a post on LJ, referring to a FB user with a referance that makes it clear they are on FB (for example, from a recent journal entry of mine, done via brute force:  Greg Elowe)

Oh, I see what you mean now. The link module would provide an easy way to link to external users who have already created their account here on LJ, but wouldn't do anything for what you want to accomplish.

Unless Facebook implemented it too.
