Hi Asheesh,

I have always thought about permalinks, they are useful and it only
implies creating an hyperlink for each unit pair.

Anyway, I don't think the MediaWiki "external link" image is the most
appropriate way to display them. This image would mean, as you said, an
"external link", and the link points inside Pootle. Also, the image is
popularly recognized as an external link, and not as a permalink.

I would add the unit number at the beginning of each translation unit
row. Then, I would either link the permalink directly or make the
permalink appear when hovering the mouse, just like the Python
documentation[1] does.

Julen.
