 Not since Bruce took them all out a few days ago ;-).  If you were
 unhappy with that you should have spoken up.  I thought the problem
 was that the default printed representation doesn't show the URL
 and is thus pretty useless.

Right.  I took them out specificially becuase Peter said it wouldn't
print the URL, just the description, and that was bad.  I standardized
on ulink url=.../ulink which prints just the URL, and worked the
description on to the existing sentence.
