Description
Description
- Add support for regular expression for filtering words on the blacklist
- Filter messages on show instead of on save, so new filters work retroactively.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the existing blacklist message-filtering implementation, then trace how filtering occurs during save and display. Done means regular-expression blacklist rules work and newly added filters affect previously saved messages, with tests covering both behaviors.
