 The web browser currently doesn't allow for the "alternate" interaction
 types for links, seen typically as a right-click to bring up a set of
 choices such as "download", "copy url", "open in new tab" and the like.

 Without this it is difficult e.g. to download .xo files from redhat's
 activity window (they show up as data in the browser window)

 There are lots of other cases where you want to be able to copy a link
 instead of following it, or you want to open a new window (or better yet,
 tab) with the new document.
