Review request for Calligra.


Changes
-------

This version of the patch fixes 2 major issues pointed out in the previous review. 

1. Adding a way to warn a user when adding bookmark using the "quick insert" technique. 

After trying QValidator and some more things, I settled upon the current method. Now the textChanged() signal of the lineedit is caught. If the text currently present is an existing bookmark, a warning is displayed with suggestion to go to "Manage Bookmarks" in red just below the text edit. Otherwise, a "Valid" in green appears. 

2. Merging of Weblinkwidget, Bookmarklink widget and LinkInsertionDialog (in LinkInsertionDialog). As suggested, designer is now used to add widgets.

Other changes included removing unnecessary methods, files, brushing up the UI, improving the indentation and some other minor fixes in field validation.


Description
-------

This patch adds the following features : 

1. Inserting hyperlinks
   -- User has a choice of inserting a link by specifying the target and the link text. Additionally, the 
      user may supply values for target and rel attributes using a drop down list.  
   -- The user may fetch the title from the web page itself (contents of the "title" tag ). This feature also
      handles URL redirects. For example, ieee.com is finally redirected to http://www.ieee.org/index.html.
      This feature will especially help in cases when a user has a list of links referred to and a list of 
      references has to be created. Just copy/pasting the URL, clicking fetch and then insert will do the job.

2. Linking to bookmarks
   -- A user can specify a bookmark name and the link text. To help the user with inserting bookmark, 
      an auto completer is used. This becomes helpful when the bookmarks have been given a name that 
      are related to the context. (lastpagefirstpara or conclusions).

3. Adding Bookmark using a labeled widget ( similar to the way footnote and endnote labels are entered )

Testing
-------

I have tested the following components : 
	
1	  Inserting Hyperlinks			
1.1	Simplest case  (works)		
1.2	Fetch title from URL (works)		
1.3	Fetch title from URL which has re directions (works)		
1.4	specify a URL without a scheme (works, appending an http:// to all the schemeless urls)
1.5	fetching from an non existing URL (Time out occurs and notifies user about the same)
				
2	Adding Bookmarks			
2.1	Simplest case (works)		
2.2	Adding a duplicate bookmark i.e. using a name that has been used before(User is notified and bookmark addition is aborted)	
				
3	Adding link to a bookmark			
3.1	Simplest case (works)		
3.2	Adding a link to a non existing bookmark (works,User is notified about non existence of the bookmark)
				
4	Manage bookmarks
4.1	user clicks on manage bookmarks	(works, Copy pasted the existing implementation. Looks like delete bookmark is broken.)	


Thanks,

Aman Madaan
