I did a bit of investigation, and it appears that revelation uses a
gnome.ui.HRef
(http://developer.gnome.org/libgnomeui/stable/GnomeHRef.html) to display
URLs. It appears that this widget itself is broken, not the way
revelation uses it. The following piece of Python code demonstrates the
issue:

    #!/usr/bin/python

    import pygtk
    pygtk.require('2.0')
    import gtk
    import gnome.ui

    if __name__ == '__main__':
        href = gnome.ui.HRef('http://ubuntu.com', 'Ubuntu')
        window = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL)
        window.add(href)
        href.show()
        window.show()
        gtk.main()
