Actually, it's the reverse process that Word uses. This way you can include a URI as plain text and not have the program assume you wanted a link. 

Unlike Microsoft, Adobe does not usually assume it knows what you want to do.

(By this, I mean that it recognizes http://, https://, mailto://, www.abc.com, and the like, finds the beginning and end, and automagically applies a specified character tag—or something similar to that.
