Comment (by filosofo):

 Actually, you can do this without having to modify
 {{{_make_url_clickable_cb}}}: just change the regex to capture a closing
 parenthesis at the end of the URL only if the entire URL is not preceded
 by an opening parenthesis.

 {{{make_clickable_parenthesis.diff}}} gets all of the following examples
 right:
