I note the WS algorithm occasionally fails to linkify an address and curious about this apparent shortcoming. Example, in one of Jackie's posts toward the end of from the bad news department(?)

I use the term "linkify" to denote the automatic detection and transformation of an address (also called URL?) into a form immediately clickable without the need for highlighting or accessing a dropown. In this process it turns the address blue and underlines it, in more sophisticated algorithms also foreshortening it

My questions are three: (1) Why doesn't cickification always occur; (2) what are the acceptable terms for "linkify" and "clickify" and (3) isn't URL just a sophisticated synonym for "address" and if not why not
