Tor Launcher strips "bridge" from the middle of bridge lines

I tried configuring a meek bridge on a URL with "bridge" in the domain name.

bridge meek 0.0.2.0:5 url=https://bridge.example.com/

When I clicked Connect, "bridge" disappeared from the URL and broke the configuration.

bridge meek 0.0.2.0:5 url=https://.example.com/
