Issue Summary
I have a link field that stores the Twitter profile address of the user.
First I found that the Twitter profile address has a weird format that includes the '#' char in as a directory. After installing the latest dev which includes the #1036628 patch it was resolved.
The problem now is that the link that is rendered is 'https://twitter.com'. All the fragment part of the address is lost.
I've been testing it and it seems to store the full URL in the database.

no need to change code here, you can use twitter urls without the #!..
My twitter account for example goes http://www.twitter.com/maroqqo and it will redirect to the #! version automatically. So for keeping validation as clean as possible I would rather suggest using this method than breaking off the validation tunnel.
btw: it is rather common and looks much better to use the link without the #! part
thanks for understanding
