Topic & Reply Filter Priorities

Topic or Reply URL's wrapped in single-quote or double-quote presume the end quote is part of the URL.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Write a topic or reply:

The websites 'http://wordpress.org' and "http://bbpress.org" are awesome

2) Output (html source):

<p>The websites ‘<a href="http://wordpress.org&amp;#8217" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org&amp;#8217</a>; and “<a href="http://bbpress.org&amp;#8221" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org&amp;#8221</a>; are awesome</p>

(front end)

The websites ‘http://wordpress.org’ and “http://bbpress.org” are awesome

​BuddyPress #2443 Make sure that make_clickable is run before wptexturize

​WordPress #17097 make_clickable() regex should exclude close-quotation marks after URLs

​http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/includes/core/filters.php#L122

I tried all 6 possible permutations for the priorities of wptexturize, convert_chars and make_clickable without successful patch, I'm done ;)

WordPress behavior in posts and comments: neither URL is linked.

WordPress runs wp_texturize and convert_chars at 10, make_clickable at 9.
