Generally, I liked the feature. But, substituting a clearly bogus text label and, as a bonus in this case of a label that matches part of a provided URL, breaking the link, is a bit much.

Earlier I had struggled with a frustrating instance or two of the feature's thinking it was wiser than I, altering the text label I had provided. At least then it didn't break the link, and caused no real harm.

If you want to pursue it with the developer, I think maybe Roy Batty has it: suggest that they do not muck with labels or URLs if they are already provided. It should never go inside an existing tag to change a URL. Also, they should respect PHP tagged text, and leave it alone.

Thanks for checking.
