Description
When URLs are included in comments/issue descriptions, JIRA turns them into Hyperlinks.

It can be quite handy at times, so is probably worth implementing, especially given how simple the regex should be to create.

Marking as related to JILS-4 as that's also concerned with processing comments/issue descriptions in much the way JIRA does.

Have implemented support for automatically converting URLs into hyperlinks. Need to decide whether to use rel="nofollow" on those links.

Decided using nofollow is probably a good idea, to avoid the possibility of reference links hitting Search Engine rankings somehow.

Have also added a CSS class (_autolink_) to the URLs converted by the regex so that they can (if wanted) be styled independently.
