I'm not sure how relevant this is, but on a Swedish keyboard {..} are more 
inconvenient. I also don't see {...} as that intuitive, but OTOH I guess

Some alternatives:

    [[(http://www.)pmichaud.com]]               - today
    [[{http://www.}pmichaud.com]]               - { ... }
    [[<http://www.>pmichaud.com]]               - < ... >


What other characters are the that are illegal in URIs?
