If people would only enclose URLs in angle-brackets, these problems
could be avoided.
- Why do so few people use angle-brackets?
- Why do so few browsers permit you to paste URLs enclosed in angle-brackets?
The second question answers the first for some of us. If you want to
write text containing URLs that will be useful to as many people as
possible, you follow the spirit of standards even if that requires
ignoring their letter.
