Suggestion: Extend the Hyperlink dialog with rel attribute

[pmk65]

Extend the Hypperlink dialog and add "rel" attribute to the options, so that it can be edited. This is quite important for security reasons if you use "target=_blank"

I've been thinking about this one and thought it might be simpler just to add another _blank option to the existing dropdown.

Code: Select all

_blank rel="noopener noreferrer"

It's a bit odd and it would require a tiny bit of code to check it, but adding a generalized REL field invites unexpected uses. It also raises the question of why other relevant attributes for a link are not included.

This strikes me as simpler.
