There are sites we know for sure: our own. In the situation as it is, you will
have to use [//wikipedia.org //wikipedia.org] instead of just //wikipedia.org.
Example:
http://test2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ExpandTemplates?input=%7B%7BSERVER%7D%7D%0A%0A%5B%7B%7BSERVER%7D%7D%5D%0A%0A%5B%7B%7BSERVER%7D%7D%20%7B%7BSERVER%7D%7D%5D%0A%0A%7B%7Bfullurl%3A%7B%7BPAGENAME%7D%7D%7D%7D%0A%0A%5B%7B%7Bfullurl%3A%7B%7BPAGENAME%7D%7D%7D%7D%5D%0A%0A%5B%7B%7Bfullurl%3A%7B%7BPAGENAME%7D%7D%7D%7D%20%7B%7Bfullurl%3A%7B%7BPAGENAME%7D%7D%7D%7D%5D%0A%0A%7B%7Bfullurl%3A%7B%7BPAGENAME%7D%7D%7Caction%3Dedit%7D%7D%0A%0A%5B%7B%7Bfullurl%3A%7B%7BPAGENAME%7D%7D%7Caction%3Dedit%7D%7D%5D%0A%0A%5B%7B%7Bfullurl%3A%7B%7BPAGENAME%7D%7D%7Caction%3Dedit%7D%7D%20%7B%7Bfullurl%3A%7B%7BPAGENAME%7D%7D%7Caction%3Dedit%7D%7D%5D
This is worse, and explizitly the fullurl:-thing will break a lot. So I think,
at least for our own domain(s) we have to enable un-bracketed links.

And I'd say it is necessary. Allowing only for spezific domains (settable in
config?) would make it more complex than it must be. wgUrlProtocols (the js
variable) would need to provide the domains for which protocol and which link
syntax will work. Urghh. I think it is much cleaner to allow every site, even
if there may happen accidents.
