I think that links in page info should be like links, so that one can open page
from them

Probably *not* a dup of bug 216086 where mconnor seems to have been WONTFIXing
the properties half of the dual enhancement request, not the page info half.
Severity: normal → enhancement
that's pretty accurate.

I'd probably rather see it as a context menu option than have it appear as a
link.  A big list of links is hard on the eyes and not so useful.

I think it should be solved to act like history or bookmark sidebar (which are
unfortunatly not finally resolved yet). History acts like 'a big list of links'
when it is viewed by last visited, so probably the same solution should apply.

Probably that means changing cursor on hover, and maybe underline on hover.
However, I also think that always underline is not good, it was tried as a patch
with bookmarks and no one agreed with that.

bug 268738 deals with the ability to drag and drop items, which is something one
can do with links.
