The plugin is designed so that
<acronym>[<id>]

is not specified for the acronym, however we'd still get false matches in some situations.For example, with the following definition,
||RFC ||Request For Comment $1 ||http://www.ietf.org/rfc.html ||http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc$1.txt||
we'd still match
RFCD
, when we only intend to match trailing numerics such asRFC2317
