Hello Marek,

you are right. When I mark the URL, I get URL and Text active in the menu.

Still, I think that's not quite it - but it's more a feature+an usability
problem rather than a direct functional bug.

Think HTML mail...
Often your URL has the text "Click here for more information".
But you do not want to make a QR out of that, but ouf of the URL that lies 
beneath it.
Since TheBat! "knows" there is an URL associated with the element when
right-click it, I'd say it can differentiate between "text selection" and
"an object (even text) with an associated URL".

I'd propose that:
- if an element is clicked that has an URL associated, that URL should be
  the relevant base for a QR code
- if a non-empty text selection os right-clicked, selection content is what
  counts
- if an empty selection with no URL association is right clicked (that is 
probably effectively what
  I was doing, I guess), I'd plead that NO QR option is present as it has no
  function anyway, thus it has no use and is confusing.

Does that sound like a feature?
