I'm going to put this under general discussion rather than suggestion since it's more of a question.
Because I am so use to opening links with the middle mouse button in all the other programs I use some times I'll middle click a link in EPIM a half dozen times thinking my mouse is on the fritz before having a Dah~ moment and realizing I need to Ctrl+Left Click instead.
Since the middle doesn't seem to do anything in notes it seems like a real waste to me, but that's also why I'm wondering if there's not some other reason?
Why doesn't middle mosue open links in notes?

In the mean time if you feel like playing with AHK [AutoHotKey] and want to try it out I've been using middle click to open links in EPIM since I started using EPIM using this AHK v1 code: [Note change Ctrl to Alt if you want links to open in the main window instead of a popup editor]
#IfWinActive ahk_exe EssentialPIM.exe
MButton::
send {Ctrl down}{LButton}{Ctrl up}
return
#IfWinActive ahk_exe EssentialPIM.exe
MButton::
send {Ctrl down}{LButton}{Ctrl up}
return

I've just tried it in EPIM 9.5 and it's really very handy to use middle click on links. Thank you.New in EssentialPIM 9.5 (Pro & Free)
...
Click on links in Notes with your mouse wheel to open them
And now I'm wondering, why not to do the same for links in other modules too, not only in the Note module?

Sure, will introduce the feature for the rest of the modules, as well.
