Yes. We can infer that. It makes it a whole lot easier to fix
something with better bug repors than that, of course, as I'm sure you
(Robert in this case, not Stephen) are generally aware of.

I've reverted a patch that was applied a few days ago that dealt with
how URLs are parsed, and I think that's the one that's responsible.
But it would be good to have an actual example of what didn't work,
because the links i tried all worked...

No, the plan has always been to support those. There are no plans to
remove that.
