I've got a second text parser running that would linkify the URL in a pre-processor stage if it has the protocol on it.
I have fixed the URLs not being linked within quoted text.
It did require changing the content of some 6 million comments across the 300+ sites... but oh well.
Nice. I always worked around it by creating a link with the link feature of the forum, but this is better of course.
