m.room.foo should not be linkified to hyperlink to http://m.room #5323

I see m.room.foo being likified to http://m.room.foo - is that what you meant?

.foo is soon to be a real tld, because apparently everything can be a tld :rage:

I think this is more pointed at this image

HMM. Linkification of course occurs to any string that looks like a URL.

.room (in addition to .foo, ffs) is also a valid tld, so m.room.related_groups is (from the linkifier's perspective) as valid as as any domain.tldl appearing at the end of any sentence.

We could (probably) fudge this to exclude linkification candidates which are followed by a . immediately followed by a non-space character.
