Warn the user if embeded links doesnt match text #161

I would like to have a warning if the embeded link is not the same as the text.

For example:

Text: google.com/search.. Url: example.com

in md format: google.com/search

=> warning to the user that the urls doesnt match the texts "advertised" url.

I am not sure if it still should warn the user if the text is NOT a url for example here is the example

Maybe we could support a redirect page like what YouTube does?

What does youtube do? I don't think I'm familiar with what you mean.

What youtube does is just a proxy so that they can track your redirects. We probably dont want that…. but a redirect warning page e.g.

"WARNING YOU LEAVE insert instance name!" Continue | Return | Never warn me about xyz.com | (not recommended) Never warn me about anything
