Comment (by sukafia):

 It seems some users don't want their client finding out they sought help
 to resolve an issue or build a site they were paid. This isn't really a
 privacy issue, it's more of some people trying to form "know all" after
 having got help to resolve a particular issue or achieve a feature.

 There are pros and cons to this suggestion. I support this feature only
 because I've witnessed mods make a big deal out of removing URL for a
 user, in a situation I felt wasn't necessary.

 I also fear this feature could be abused.

 If it's possible to have guidelines under which mods can remove URLs from
 posts for a user, I'll certainly opt for that.
