(I note that Markdown isn't turned off for KDE bugzilla...) Please attach such a file Created attachment 147797 [details]
Test file
Test file. Personally, I do not see what we can do here.
We do show a different cursor in that area, so we do recognise there's a link, so it seems it could be fixable (without having had a look at all) |
