[Feature Request] Open Link dialog box #4

Description

If you know klick on a link, you don't know where it's directing to.

Possible solution

(1) Provide an dialog box which asks you if you want to continue to the following link or not (as for example Telegram does if you go on a link).

(2) Show an box with the address of the hyperlink if you go with the cursor on the link.

Thanks for your help! King regards, Flo

I was going to suggest on hover but actually a gritter with the URI showing up could make perfect sense.. Be mindful of XSS :D

Well I guess both options, a dialog box as well as on hover would be fine :) On hover could be combined with pressing Ctrl+Link as it's done in Office documents?
