Bug#426592: gnome-terminal: URL detection mechanism flaw

[Ron]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.18.0-2
Severity: normal

Put "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore's_law" in a terminal without the quotes. Move cursor over URL. "'s_law" is not part of the URL according to gnome-terminal. This is a flaw.
