for Links report

Aside - the way the destination panel works, is what I would like in the viewer, the ability to see a footnote along with those adjacent - it's really useful in heavily footnoted books.

But even better was if the footnote contains an html link and I click on it the page is rendered in the destination panel - I'd love to see that in the viewer. The viewer leaps off to the default browser which I find to be a disruption - so I am less likely to click on them.

In two clicks I went from an academic critique of Jamie Dimon to Cornford's Being A Guide For The Young Academic Politician to Aesop's Belling the Cat fable.

That's the sort of thing that makes reading footnotes worthwhile - well it does for me

Added : Oh, yes whilst I was there I was able to sort out some misdirected links that I'd previously given up on.
