Links in signatures should not link at all, that is a bug if they do.

This should make it harder for spammers - if they change their signatures, all of their old posts will contain that link. They can therefore post stuff that does not contain links (which will trigger a RSS post and notifications) and later change their signature (which will not create notifications) to link bait people and boost their page rank.
