Initial Comment:
Great 1.0 Release!


Linking to other entries is very tiresome. Even with
the Wiki Syntax Plugin it just does not get much
easier. I would love to see a fast and very short way
of linking to other entries. This is usefull especially
for very nested content.


Idea 1:

Event Plugin for Backend, that shows an "Insert
intelligent link" button in both text editing areas
when writing a new entry or editing one. A click on it
opens a popup with a list of all entries published so
far. As soon as you have chosen an entry, it enters the
link code  to the textarea the button was assigned to.

Contras for Idea 1: A: Not compatible with WYSIWYG
Editors, B: Popups, mouse usage, extra loading time
BUT: Very easy to use


Idea 2:

Eventplugin that adds a completely additional syntax,
that works in conjunction with the other Syntax plugins
(is this difficult to realise?). Then there could be a
Syntax like
[[WORD_I_WANT_2B_CLICKABLE|ID_of_linked_entry]]. Yes, I
know, it is Wiki style syntax, but with the tweat of
only needing the ID of the linked entry. That would
speed up linking a lot.

Cons: Not as pretty as the popup, maybe difficult to
realise in addition to the other syntaxes
