Not to me.  Despite what Daryle says, the feature hurts nobody (or at
least he hasn't explained why it hurts anyone), and once you discover
it's there, it's very useful.  If there were a more explicit way to
implement those links without interfering with presentation, I might
go for it, but I don't have any brilliant ideas and nobody else has
offered any so for now, that's the best we can do.

Yes.
