If you want to keep the colon, you could use:
;Example<nowiki>:</nowiki> :Blah blah
I'd think that your suggested change would be too much of a deviation from current syntax - but I defer to the community for further input.

In findColonNoLinks replace:

I don't know if there is a reported bug for this, but the behaviour has bitten me once or twice, and I don't think there's anything useful in treating a trailing colon as the start of a (non-existent) definition.
Steve PS It may be preferable to implement this by searching the left($str, strlen($str)-1) or something, but I leave that to people who actually know PHP :)
