Well, you can still run 1.x side-by-side just for import purposes if you need 
this.

OK, so this really sounds then like something in Mnemosyne that could be 
improved to help you with your workflow. I suggest that you try the same with 
2.0 in due course, and if it's still too slow, just let us know.

There are two ways this could be achieved with Mnemosyne 2.0. Either write a 
script to edit your SQL database and add these links, or (way cooler I think) 
write what's called a Filter which will dynamically add these links to your 
displayed cards as soon as they come up for review (leaving the SQL database 
as it is).

Cheers,
