What I am saying is that there may be occasions where it simply won't be
possible to come up with the perfect design immediately and that such an
impossibility shoudln't prevent us from trying things. We can always
make features experimental so that people can try them and provide
feedback.

No it's not about wrapping. When a URL is long then I just find it
tiring to have to figure out where it ends whereas a URL can, I think,
be captured by a regular expression.
