      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a page with a title like 'Here is [a title] of a page'.
      2. Copy the URL of that page
      3. Paste it into a Confluence editor
        • Expected result - autocomplete inserts a link to the page with 'Here is [a title] of a page' as the link text.
        • Actual result - autocomplete only links the text between the [ ] characters and the link is inserted as a 'create page' link, because that page does not exist.
