Fascinating, I had no idea it worked like that. That "with brackets" case is really freaky.
For spectators: if you type [[|foo]], for some reason the software replaces it with [[foo (with brackets)|foo]]. I would love to hear the reason for that!
For the avoidance of confusion, this only happens if the link is in an article whose title ends with "...(in brackets)".
In other words, if you are editing an article whose title ends with a parenthesised word or phrase, any links which begin with a pipe character will be expanded to include that word or phrase, together with parentheses, in the **title** part of the link.
Freaky indeed, and it took a couple of tries before I believed what I was seeing.
