Description
When a logged in user comments, the wp-comments-post code stripps the http:// from her URI before writing the cookie. Next time around the commenter produces a broken URI.

I doubt that it was fixed weeks ago - because it is in the just released tar.gz ...

The clean_url() filter should add the http:// back. Stripping it in the first place is indeed needless, but clean_url() should correct it.

When the stripping was in, I had the following effect: when going to the comment form, the normal URL was shown. After posting the comment, the URL was changed - and in the comment form it was presented without leading http:// - so at least this will irritate users, even if the http:// is added on the next comment. I think the URL should be left untouched in the process so that the cookie contains the full URL.
And of course it's not adminstration but general and it is for 1.5 :-/
Too bad one can't edit the bugreport itself (at least I didn't find an obvious way to do so).
