Was there a bug for this?
Not bug, just the recent thread on ML. The situation as I see it: 1) There seems to be consesus that: - we should ask the user by dialog before launching a) hyperlinks b) citation urls from bib file c) lyxpaperview searches. - the dialog should have "don't ask me again" option remembered per file - the dialog should explicitly contain URL/link itself 2) There is hesitation whether to have general RC variable to disable the dialog above in general. 3) Either add security warning (tooltip?) to Control>Search drive for cited files or move the whole checkbox to Converters>Security and make it obvious that way The move itself makes more sense in case we go for 2 to group everything on one spot. The immediate security concern is covered by 1. 2 can be added later or never. 3 is disabled by default and hint can be added later as well.
