 Seems like that feature, not at all limited to Terminology mind
 you, an handy as it may be at times, really should require a modifier
 key when clicked to do anything (or a right-click). Highlighting/Copying
 text that is 'hot' like this is also a PITA because of this UI feature.
 
 Overall, I would say it generally causes the computer a lot of parsing
 work for nothing. Now, if the parsing only occurred when the mouse was
 over a string and ctl-alt (or whatever) was pressed, and then it
 resolved it as a link and then clicking it would go there, then that
 would be quite useful, performant and unobtrusive.

it only parses when the mouse is over a link - no mods. the parsing is nothing
really work-wise. you can also still select just fine. its a click without a
drag (no selection) that causes the link to be activated. the only
obtrusiveness is the visual underline.

in fact, it may be a problem when you click. And when do you want to 
click ? When you want to select text, either in a text editor, or to 
copy text in the clipboard?
