Exactly my thoughts poy. 
Like the recent rar exploit that's been in the headlines absolutely unnecessarily; if you click a malicious link or download and install a malicious executable yourself, well, it has always been the users' responsibility.
Combined the chat link with unicode quirks can rather be called dangerous but that needs a fix somewhere else.
