make less ambiguity in URI links

current behavior seems correct to me. if you want external links styled differently, that's no problem. don't see how it makes sense for link view (which is a link to cards) to have external links. It's up to wagneers to use the view that makes sense, no?

You'll note that I didn't say it isn't correct. I'm actually using URI cards a bit and this seems like a bit of an ambiguity. It really is a special link case where there are two potential targets depending on context. I just wan't a way to get both of them with view options that don't change it for other cards.

I'd probably add new views in a mod.

What about a show/hide option that is normally hidden and doesn't do anything on most types?

that sounds like a fine option, but not for link view. link view is just a link to a card. If we change that, there's no way to have a link to just the card.

you could add a mod with a view named "special_link" and then override it in the narrow set.

actually, you don't need a mod.

special_link+*right+*structure -> {{_left|link}}

URI+special_link+*type plus right+*structure -> {{_left|link}} {{_left|content}}

then just append special_link to your results.  we do stuff like that all the time.

A bit wonky, but an acceptable answer.
