i have also had this argument about the validity of () in URLs because wikipedia uses them. this is partly why i don't like pablo, he was totally dismissive of this issue.

just need to know that as a rule you need to space separate URLs. always. brackets are the main reason.

there is no logic you can use to determine if close brace after a URL with no space are not part of teh URL. that's not a bug in the code that's a bug in the spec. braces should never have been permitted as valid URL characters but we are so far past the point where it has become common.
