Just noticed at bug 663292 comment 1

When we convert a text with URL to a link we intelligently stop linkifing URL at ")" character. And that is great...

But I suggest we should not do this if there is already a not closed "(".

That way we can keep the wiki URLs pretty.
Sure, I agree that would be great. If you can come up with a way to modify our regex to make that work and it doesn't break other things, we'd be happy to accept a patch. It seems like some fairly complex regex voodoo, though.

Summary: Dont stop linkifing URL text at ")" if there is already a matching "(" not closed → Include close-parenthesis ")" in auto-linkification if there is an open-parenthesis "(" inside of the link that isn't already closed
