Ensure Autolink doesn't suggest linking to the current page

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?
Currently when i click Autolink in an article, and the article contains the phrase of its own title (very common thing in character template for instance), the Autolinker repeatedly suggests links which would be circular. it also means i am only cnfident to use the manual select option, as both other options would result in one or multiple circular references to the current page.How does this feature request address the current situation?
I could make use of the bulk options for Autolink, and be confident of avoiding cicular links.What are other uses for this feature request?
Maybe none... and tbh, this may actually be a bug of ommission rather than a feature really - apologies if so.Follow up
Let me know if i should post this in bug report instead of getting everyone to use their points to upvote it :-)
The Team's Response
Hey there guys. This is a bug not a feature. It works correctly in the Visual editor and it slipped through the cracks on Euclid
