Eurgh. That's a real mess of a user interaction - in an RTL locale, it starts
as RTL, but then you type enough of a string that looks a bit like
"http?://www" it magically switches to LTR? What about when your wiki page that
you're internally linking to is [[http://www.amazon.com]] - do you show as LTR
even though it's actually an internal link? How does this get handled in other
software?
