Thanks, Scott! It appears that this is a bug on the current server as well, so I'm going to recategorize.
- Target version changed from 1.9.22 to 1.9.24
Moving this to the 1.9.24 release, which will be on the 11th. (1.9.23 will correspond to the server upgrade.)

I looked into this a bit more. I disabled the bracket-linking functionality on purpose, as part of #4472. Apparently, there was some confusion when square brackets were being used for different reasons.
What do we want to do here? My inclination is to leave it disabled, and to work on a more robust tool for selecting content to make linkable. Chris, do you have any thoughts about it?
