There are a lot of phishing/scams that attempt to obscure the actual destination
of the link through odd contortions of the link.  I would like to request a
feature in thunderbird that is similar to the "link watch" feature in some of
the recent versions of Eudora, which does a compare of the destination host with
the linked text (if it is a valid text link) and alerts when the two do not match.
