1801073 - Make urls clickable in values in JSON response

Status: NEW

(DevTools :: Netmonitor, defect, P3)

Description

[Jan Honza Odvarko [:Honza] (always need-info? me)]

Originaly reported here: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/make-urls-clickable-in-values-in-json-response/idi-p/19205

1. Open the devtools on the Network tab
2. Do an XHR request
3. Have it return some kind of JSON
4. Have it return in that JSON any string that contains a URL
5. Select said XHR request on the Network tab
6. Select the Response tab
7. Open the JSON up to find the vaue that contains a URL
8. Try clicking it

Expected result:

Ctrl+clicking it should follow the URL and open it. Probably best to do so in a new tab.

Actual result:

The URL isn't opened (just the selection is changed)

This is already implemented for the JSON viewer, we should do the same here.
