2. Hover over link

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

This should be considered a security issue.  In order to view the link now, one
must copy it to the clipboard, open a text editor like Kate or KWrite, then
paste it in the document.  This is a ridiculous amount of work to view what was
once right on the screen, and can result in many people just clicking on the
link.
