I noted, though, that parentheses () in the url are "cleaned", somehow.
By chance, the result is an useful url anyway.

That is on purpose. The idea is that you can create a link like this:

        [[ (http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Main/)SomePage(Hidden) ]]

and the link text becomes

        SomePage

instead of

        http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Main/SomePageHidden

It's quite nifty although annoying with URIs that use (). To get the (), you need to write something like %28 for '(' - I don't remember the exact numbers unfortuntaely but I'm sure they're in the FAQ.

I wonder if this behaviour is "normal" and, if so, it has to be kept.

Don't know... might be possible to disable it, Patrick?

A better approach might be to use a '{}' instead of '()', althought maybe that would crash with some other markup. I don't know if this can be changed either.
