Today you can encode '(' and ')' using %28 and %29 respectively. So
 	[[http://someuri.org/bla%28
links to the target
 	http://someuri.org/bla(

The arguments for using (...) for hiding parts of the address instead of 
encoding them, is that '(' and ')' only occur very rarely. In my 
exprerience this approach works very well in practice.
