The downside is that the link needs to fit on the screen for the user to read it. :-) I'm not happy with the idea of a hugely-wide search results pane masking much of the screen unnecessarily, but I also think that expanding and contracting as needed could be a bit of an eyesore… -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
