LiveJournal Importer mishandles some <lj-cut> and <lj user=""> expressions

Reported by: sfllaw Owned by: a-bishop
Priority: normal Component: livejournal-comments
Severity: normal Keywords: livejournal-importer, import, livejournal, regexp
Cc: sfllaw@…, peter.westwood@…, designsimply

Description

Reproduction steps:

  1. Create a LiveJournal? entry that has <lj user="foo" /> in it. Note that this is XML-ish
  2. Try to use the livejournal-importer on this post.

Bug
The <lj user="foo" /> gets ignored because the regular expression is too strict.

I've attached a patch that makes LiveJournal? Importer recognize the XML-ish version.
