Comment (by johnjamesjacoby):

 > 'foo.com' is being validated ((https?:\/\/)?). If the ultimate goal is
 to display this as a link in the profile, then this can't happen. Ideally,
 we'd be able to detect this sort of thing, and then throw on an 'http://'
 when the field is saved. Want to have a crack at this?

 I'd love for us to remove the scheme from the HTML output, and keep it in
 the HREF. WordPress's `make_clickable()` function might be a good place to
 start digging, too.
