New description:

 In example:
 {{{
 [shortcode urlparam=http://somesite/path/]content text[/shortcode]
 }}}
 {{{
 "[shortcode urlparam=http://somesite/path/]"
 }}}
 is interpreted as self closing:
 {{{
 [shortcode/] with urlparam="http://somesite/path"
 }}}
 All examples in http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API include
 whitespace before `'/]'`

 This prevents implementation of bbcode parser for people to paste flickr
 photo snippets.
