As far as I am concerned, r3340 is a reasonable solution. Not every link has to be underlined for people to know it a link. Common sense allows people to figure out that a UI element is usually a link.
Links in text should be differentiated. They now are. As far as I am concerned, the current implementation is fine for dashboard modules is fine. It's a nice little additional functionality for "power" users. If you don't know the headings are links, it doesn't hurt you and the interface works fine. If you figure out they are, you find a nice little set of shortcuts. I think any net user is familiar with the idea of not all links being underlined. A plethora of popular sites don't underline obvious links, yet people use them fine. Human beings aren't robots. We have brains which allow us to reason that headings and ui elements are links.
