I'd do one of two things- either not make assumptions about what other
domains do, or not hack up things that look like URLs and start with
either http:// or https:// ...
I mean, we're already detecting that URLs are, well, URLs, right?
Otherwise, how are they showing up as links at all? Seems like it
should be possible to avoid mucking with anything that will end up
becoming a URL on the website.
Thanks!
