Expected behavior

Don't auto-format URL

Well, know that I understood that I can create a "web page resource" in the library I don't know if that's really a bug ?

Yes that's not a bug that's a feature ;) - due to markdown shortcuts. Even if the preferred way is to create a webpage entity, this issue could be addressed by:

refactoring markdown shortcuts to avoid being triggered while being in middle of a word
implementing a URL detection mechanism (during pasting ? during any text input ?) to automatically create web page resources out of pasted plain text URLs
