           Summary: Links in Console are not selectable and do not have a
                    sufficient context menu.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Inspector
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: adman.com at gmail.com


When a link is generated inside the Web Inspector console, for example the
completion of a XHR, a link is created in the console. 

However, unlink a normal link or normal console text, it cannot be selected
(i'm not sure why). Furthermore, the right-click menu is not different for the
link, giving only the option to "Clear Console".

As most of the selection is used for copy&pasting, by fixing the context menu,
that bug would be minimal. The context menu for links should be the same (or
similar) to that of standard links in the browser:
* Open Link in New Tab
* Open Link in New Window
* Save Link As...
* Copy Link Address
--
* Clear Console

As there would be more than one link, the code to attach the contextmenu
handler would have to be placed where the console message is originally
created, not where the standard ConsoleView.js spot where the Clear Console
context menu is created. The link can be found by the class
"webkit-html-resource-link".
