Bug Description

As you know, factoids can be directed to specific users with !factoid | username or !factoid > username. This is awesome and incredibly useful. It'd be great if "!info packagename | username" and "!info packagename > username" worked too, because the !info factoid is used frequently in #ubuntu, and package descriptions tend to be long, so > especially would help prevent scrolling a little.

Current behavior:
<rww> !info supybot | someuser
