134924 - Few shortcuts

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 10080

(SeaMonkey :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Stefano]

I have few shortcuts for user interface to suggest you:

1) URL bar, right click context menu, add "paste and go" next "paste".

2) Right click context menu on the webpage, add "go to "xyz" ..." if I select
"xyz" on the page and it's an URL. They're not always encoded as <A> tag, so I
have to cut'n'paste them manually every time.

Thank you guys!

please limit requests to one per report

the first (paste and go) has been discussed before, and i think we settled on 
not doing it, so i'd suggest we focus on the second.

my feeling is that the second isn't very useful, if you're  using linux (you 
aren't i know..) then you can select a url and middle click to load the url. if 
you aren't then you might be able to drag the text (url) to the locationbar or 
something to load it, b...


my general feeling is that average users don't need this.

an alternative might be to get mozilla's  texxt->html converter optionally 
hooked up to browser (it's currently mostly used in mailnews)

please excuse typos, i'm typing blindly (resource leak)

The second item is a duplicate in any case....  can't find the original at the
moment, though.
