We just started using CKEditor and the first problem that I saw had to do with links.
When I add a link, I don't see a way to then follow that link. Single click does nothing, double-click opens the link editor. I searched the forums and it looks like at some point the functionality was added to allow for Ctrl+Click, or Right-Click/Follow Link. I don't see this functionality in the latest build (4.3.3).
It is kind of a big issue for us and I am honestly surprised it's not working. Even in read only mode it's not working. We use the CKEditor fields on forms that people can edit, e.g. techs enter their notes in a support ticket. The next person who opens the ticket and reads the notes should be able to follow the links. This seems like a basic use scenario and I would not expect to have to write a plugin for this.
Is there a configuration option to control this and I just missed it?
Just to finish on a positive note, I really like CKEditor's architecture and was impressed how easy it was to integrate the editor with our ExtJS application. Keep up the great work!
Thanks,
Alex

A new feature request has been posted before relating to this. My advice would be to reply to that ticket. Let the devs know there's interest in this feature. Somebody else also mentioned needing this a week ago. I'll let the guys know there's interest.

How to follow links?
First of all, when you post the forum then you copy the URL and past your exel or Gmail spreadsheet then you have to edit your post and past that URL in your post then save.
