in thread New feature: copy/pastable self referential backlink [id://...] for every node

I agree about the inconsistency, but frankly I'm happy we have at least this solution now.

What you want needs adjustments at totally different locations and might imply changing the look and feel.

I'm not eager to open up that box of snakes... ;)

As always with the monastery this was much harder to implement than thought, because of some obscure dependencies.

It's already hard for Gods even much worse for pmdevs.

But you might want to apply for pmdevs and try it by yourself?

> By the way, the space you show before "=section"

Yes. Reason: I wrote everything today on mobile browsers. (Tl;Dr)

> can be tricky

Yes, I usually "copy link text", in the years before I just edited the "greedy" copy.

You may wanna talk to the gods about this. :)

    yeah... I'm not happy with the current format, on <datetime> ( [link]=type: print, xml ) (or whatever - depends on the node type)

    I'm going to change it. Feedback welcome.

      > Feedback welcome.

      I can see you're already experimentinging with  ....class="addlinks">( %N : %S . %L )

      Before I started this thread I was already pondering about highlighting the id- link like

       ....class="addlinks">( <b>%N</b> : %S . %L )

      Or <tt> instead or additional to <b>

      Personally I'd keep the = over the : because it's carrying the "is of type" semantics.

    For personal reasons, it's not feasible for me to take on such work at this time.
