[Plugin: wp-spamspan] obfuscates e-mail in forms

Many forms auto-fill the user’s e-mail address.
Because this module does a blanket replacement on all content, these form fields get mightily messed up.
Here are a couple solution ideas:

1) Ideally, form fields would simply not be obfuscated – since a spam-bot would not see a filled in form field anyhow, and we don’t want to turn these e-mail addresses into mailto links on the client side.

2) Changing the priority of the the_content filter to 9 seems to fix my immediate problems. Probably not a general solution.

This is the best obfuscation technique going – so simple, very effective, non-intrusive. If you need help maintaining the plugin, I’d be happy to lend a hand.
