Comment:

 [attachment:34939.diff] adds '=' to the list of reserved characters in the
 regex as well as the warning text. It also trims '=' from the left side of
 the attributes string, so that the resulting attribute from
 `[shortcode=http://wordpress.org]` is just 'http://wordpress.org'.

 There is a new test added as well, but I noted in two different comments
 that the `[shortcode=http://wordpress.org]` format is NOT recommended (I'd
 love to see it go away some day, so less reliance on it would be a plus).
