I badly miss the Insert Hyperlink option (button). OK, it's in the Rich Text options, but shouldn't it be there also for plain text posts? After all, Forum Codes work. The idea here is to do what plain text emails do for users: hyperlinks just work even in there.

Similarly, couldn't Insert Hyperlink be implied if people just enter a URL? I mean, if I write http://www.example.com - http://www.example.com even in plain text, shouldn't it be the same as if I surrounded it by URL tags? Several boards do this, but this one only does it for Rich Text, in plain text users have to inser URL tags manually.
