When a link contains feed: in the URL, it is not displayed correctly in the status bar.

The actual URL is 

   a href="feed:http://www.....com/feed/"

but the URL shown in the status bar is 

   feed://http//www.....com/feed/

IE8 shows the correct URL in the status bar. Not sure if this is a problem, but thought I would report it.

Such a feed works for me even if it is displayed differently then you expect on the status bar.
