To be honest I do not use this feature at all for the very same reasons.
In fact at this site it used to be if I posted
UBBWiki
That was a active link.
Not anymore so I assume it was deleted for the very same reason or it got changed to something else.
Besides all the items they have still on their todo list which I am sure they have.
I don't think the active text feature has even been addressed yet.
They have been busy just updating the software to be compatible with modern server software trying to tweak items along the way.
Plus providing some additional benefits that we can enjoy.
So be patient Grasshopper..
