Also, while the English Wikipedia discourages the use of bare URLs (in articles, as Deryck rightly notes), I'm not sure that everyone else does.

If we're not going to support auto-numbered links, then perhaps we need to autogenerate some kind of label, so that links like http://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=rXrGbnMg63YC&oi=fnd&pg=PP8&dq=ranking+cultures+by+risk+aversion&ots=dU2aymnLlK&sig=kiKMWuk7_F0VLJnq1eO_ND9-IEY#v=onepage&q&f=false get turned into something human readable (perhaps books.google.com).
