Details:

I suggest a new function to avoid sending unwanted commands as PRIVMSG in
channel buffers. There should be an option to detect input starting with
spaces then / and warn the user.
As for the option weechat.look.paste_max_lines, when pressing enter after
writing a line starting with blanks then "/", weechat should ask something
like:
[send ctrl+y] [cancel ctrl+n] [strip blanks ctrl+…]

where "send" would force sending the message, "cancel" would allow to come
back to prompt and modify the line and "strip" would remove the unwanted
characters (i.e. exec the command and not send PRIVMSG)

An option (boolean) should be added to allow the function to be
enabled/disabled.

further idea (optional):
An other option (string) may be added to allow the customization of the regexp
used to detect the pattern.
e.g. "( +)/.*" would mean that warning is displayed for lines starting with
blanks then / then anything, and the parenthesis would define the pattern to
be removed.
This would allow to define more generic patterns as "([a-Z ])/.*nickserv.*"

or maybe the string should just consider the pattern to be removed and be
detected if being before the first "/" of the input (so would be just " *" or
"([a-Z ])")
