I have been testing out the URL Link Extensions and it works great with general user generated links in blog and forum posts etc.
But there are other offsite links where it would be great if it could include them. Like the URL to the original blog post based on an external rss feed. Or the links to external bloggers that are added to our internal bloggers "navigation" lists.
There are many places in Telligent where you have no ability to manually add the target="_blank".
Some of them could be handled by changing the widget (like the RSS feeds are always external) - while I would need the "smartness" of the URL link extensions to do it for the navigation lists. And I really prefer not to do any customizations that are not required. :)
As a side question, do you have "any" documentation on how to use the 4Road extensions? Some of them are quite easy to apply like the URL Link and MicroData extensions. Others like Sentrus, Theme utilities and the configuration extensions are not so obvious.

The links modify is designed to be a generic solution for content, to do the whole page would require a different approach, such as using CSQuery. This is a much heavier solution than we wanted to implement and as you say all of the other locations generally can be edited using widget configuration.

With regards to documentation, I can make no promises at the moment. Happy to answer questions though and if you want to fork the projects and contribute documentation that would really help.

I would be happy to contribute with what I can in terms documentation etc. If you could set up the "documentation framework" - like an "empty" template showing how you imagine the documentation to be. :)
