    Because spaces are how it separates the url from the title text?


    I know the reference version doesn't do it that way, but wouldn't
    the <> url wrappers be good for wrapping around urls that contain
    wonky items?   I ignored that behavior of the standard when I
    wrote my markdown, and use <> as "wrap everything" for urls.
