Issue Summary

When trying to use Markdown on the editor of the new issue view to add hyperlinks (syntax '[text](URL)') there is some unexpected behavior.

For example, the hyperlink might not render at all or, in some cases, it will render but when you send the comment it will become normal text.

Steps to Reproduce

1. If you add '(' then paste a URL, the URL will be automatically rendered and a blank space will be added after it. If you then try to add ‘)' it will not render the hyperlink since there is a blank space, so you’ll need to first remove the blank space then add ‘)', which will render the hyperlink successfully. However, when you send the comment, the link doesn’t work: Testing Markdown Hyperlink 1.
2. if you first create the ‘()’ and put the URL inside, it will not render as a hyperlink. If you then proceed to remove the last ')’ and add it again at the end, it will render. The ‘)' needs to be the last character you enter:  Testing Markdown Hyperlink 2.

Expected Results

The hyperlink should be rendered in all cases.

Actual Results

The hyperlink is not rendered, or, it is rendered on the comment text box but when sent it becomes normal text.

Workaround

Use the Link button.
