 I spent a long time trying to understand the following comment and code at
 https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/sanitize_user/:


 {{{
 // Kill octets.
 $username = preg_replace( '|%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])|', '', $username );
 }}}

 I think it would be better if the comment was "remove percent-encoded
 characters".
