Title.
I’m tired of having to copy/paste links in 2014.
[strike]Install Merely’s Group Enhancer and all links turn into hyperlinks on group pages.
It’s a start. You could write a plugin as well.[/strike]

I just highlight the link and drag it onto my search bar.
I just click it with my middle mouse button and it opens in a new tab. Thanks Firefox 
That’s what extensions are for.
It’s a fine idea though. The link itself could also be changed to the name of the page that is links to; it would make the link more trustworthy for younger users.
