Adding user defined columns is really great and I love it.

What I would like to do is the following:

We have several over web based systems which track certain things, an example are our MR (modification request) and TR (trouble report) numbers, so what I did is added these as user defined fields to various workflow types..

It works great. What I would like to define though is the ability to specify a template for a URL.

Example:

Details about an MR number can be found under:
http://someinternalserver/Defects/display_mr.asp?Defect=12345

When I make 'MR' a user defined field, I would during definition also like to specify the URL template in the form:
http://someinternalserver/Defects/display_mr.asp?Defect=$VALUE$
(or similar)

so that whenever the MR number is displayed anywhere in the program, it is a hyperlink to the specified address template for the column.

We have several different databases and having direct links that are directly clickable would make life a lot easier.
