Description Kariem Hussein CLA 2004-08-18 13:53:21 EDT 
If the javadoc contains references to other members or classes, it would be very
nice to be able to follow the links. This is especially useful if you look at
both, the code and its documentation.

They could be rendered as standard HTML links, and if you follow the link, the
appropriate member or type is opened in the editor.

Tags that refer to other members or classes:

  @link
  @linkplain
  @see

I think links to thrown exceptions (@throws, @exception) or parameter types are
not necessary.

What do you think of that?

Works for classes but not for members (): press Ctrl+ and hover over the type.
The problem with members is coverd by bug 54968.
