XF 2.1 Remove formatting button doesn't remove links

It does remove links. If you wrap a link around prose and then remove the formatting, it will strip the link BB code. It doesn't prevent the auto-link behavior from occurring when a URL is included directly in the text though. To disable that, you actually have to use formatting (the [plain] tag).
 
hmmmm I can't get this remove formatting to remove the links from this bit even here, try yourself in the editor
