 Xprofile will automatically create hyperlinks out of many comma-separated
 lists, but doesn't behave well when semicolons are used instead of or in
 conjunction with commas.

 A lot of our users use semicolons to separate items in their interests
 lists, especially when some of those items contain commas:

 Interests: interest one; interest two; comma, interest three.

 A solution would be to allow semicolons as delineators in addition to
 commas. I'll submit a patch for this.

 Since I haven't submitted many patches to BP yet, please let me know if
 I'm doing the patch submission correctly.
