Correct, and in one way consistent. In another, though, inconsistent.

For the simple formats, selecting the text, then clicking the button, 
does the entire job.

For links, the important part (http://) isn't included if text is 
already selected. I can't decide whether the highlighted text we've 
already typed should become the URL or the link text. Too many steps for 
a single button. I like the mini-form that pops up on other sites, but 
it's way beyond my skills. Worth a PITS entry?
