... a good idea to confuse the users? Is this really needed, when you already have link target indication in the status bar?
OTOH (as to (10)), if you prepend all links in the status bar with "Link opens in...", you make it
# much harder to read the link at one glance and
# more difficult to read the URL on short status bars.
I'd rather append the text - or drop it completely (since when appended, you make it more difficult to read the end of the URL - and the text might be completely invisible on short status bars).
Best would probably be to create a new status bar part for a link target indicator (even in front of the link, but so that the URL always starts at the same place) - and use an icon with a tooltip instead of text. --[[User:Zeniko|zeniko]] 05:38, 21 Mar 2006 (PST)
