Only twitter and Facebook links go thru DMs. I think
if several people file
a support ticket for this we may achieve something. Else get Jimbo to send
a mail to the Twitter folks. Problem would be solved in no time. :)

That said, every other source I can find mentioning a whitelist points
back
at that same article - no one seems to have
independently confirmed that.
So I'll poke some folks but don't hold your breath :)

Some URLs go though, others do not. I doubt it's random ;-)
