...I like the ease of dragging an item from the tree pane into the text pane, and having a link appear there ... It'd be good for these text links to be included there automatically as a two-way association.

Interesting - as you commented - we already drag items to the
Item Details Pane to establish or capture a rudimentary item association / relationships / connections type of view. In one of my earlier posts i suggested the introduction of
new Connections pane. I was thinking along the lines of another separate pane. However, a couple of ideas come to mind from your post:
First of all. Perhaps a Y/N system level item attribute is introduced that determines whether an item has a connections view. Then:
(Idea 1) This new attribute determines whether the
Item Details Pane acts as a
rich text editor OR a
connections editor.
(Idea 2) This new attribute determines whether any tabs appear at the top of the
Item Details Pane. With "Connections=NO", there is no tab. In other words, UR behaves as it does now. With "Connections=YES", two tabs appear titled
Text and
Connections. Obviously you click each of these tabs to show either the item text or connections view.
Just food for thought. Sounds a bit silly when I read it back through but I'll post anyway.
