This is lame. And it's such a weakness of URL shorteners.

100% correct. I don't use url shortners if I can help it, as it's introducing yet another point of failiure in internet hyperlinks.
Who wants to bet that in a year or two there'll be another few url shortening services down the drain, and millions more broken links out there on the net.
