They are not really like hypertext in that there is no or little text to click on that is not mouse sensitive. This makes it inconvenient to click to set the mouse position. I can't comment on Gnus, which I don't use. In Compilation and Grep modes, only the file names and line numbers respond to mouse-1. They also show a mouse face. Perhaps we should underline them to make them look more like a link. How about that?
