I do not have the time to read your patch in detail. I hope that I am wrong, but at first view it looks as if you do: (setcar event 'mouse-2) whenever the user clicked mouse-1 and the text has the mouse-face property and does not have the new dont-follow-link property. Hopefully I am misunderstanding this, as it would obviously be disastrous, even for an optional feature. Having the mouse-face property does _not at all_ imply that the text is a link. I would rather work with a `link' property if you want to remap, than with a `dont-follow-link' if not. Sincerely, Luc.
