Just so that I can follow - URLs posted by non-admins should not render as HTML URLs at all? Wouldn't that be quite limiting for OSS project members for example?
My opinion on the topic isn't definitive by any means, but I think a lot of projects would do just fine without allowing arbitrary hyperlinks to be added by non-admins.
I think being able to link to related issues and link into the code is still important, for example.
It's certainly a trade off, but spammers want it to be rendered as a link.
