Given that this has been achieved, I wonder whether the bug cannot be closed by simply adding a filter option to hide the struck-out bluelinks? I have no insight into the code, but it seems the filter could be added with very little performance loss, provided we don't expect the precise number of returns and the filter automatically switches to a high browsing interval (2000-5000), and adds an explanation like: "2000/ACTUAL NUMBER files have been found that are not present in the local wiki. Of these, some or many are available in a shared file repository. These are not shown below. As a result, the number or missing files shown is variable." This may be not ideal, but clearly better than the present consistent, but rather useless behavior. Who is likely to browser through 100s of pages of struck-out blue links to find the truly missing red-links? In fact on metawiki nobody seem to be doing this, so many broken links exist... -- Mark: you changed priority from Highest to Low without arguing - I think it would be better interaction with the community if you could argue or comment why. In some of your changes that may be evident from previous discussion, here I think not. You may well have much more information than Jan Kucera.
