Description James Forrester 2012-09-04 15:54:09 UTC
Suggested by a user.
Comment 1 James Forrester 2012-12-05 01:05:39 UTC
Clarifying - I think this was meant to be about links in the CE surface rather than in the link inspector in any way.
Comment 2 Ed Sanders 2013-09-26 12:53:23 UTC
A pointer implies that clicking will follow the link, when in fact it places a text cursor, hence cursor:text (as it is) is more appropriate. Both LO/OO and Google Docs use cursor:text for links.

WONTFIX unless I have misunderstood the point.
