Title: [fixed] Parentheses in Markdown links aren’t being parsed correctly

According to a bit of research, this isn’t supposed to be an issue with Markdown, but closing parentheses in a URL are breaking the parser. [Example 1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_(xkcd)) [Example 2](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_(xkcd)_etc)

By the way, do you plan to add inline code tags (backticks?) as well?

Possibly, the whole thing moving to Markdown from BBCode is a work in progress. One bit at a time to ensure no major breakage.
