I’m not sure if this is the right place to make this suggestion, but I use [MacDown](https://github.com/MacDownApp/macdown) when writing all of my GitHub READMEs. If you have already copied a link and it’s sitting in your clipboard, MacDown has a very slick feature that automatically populates the hyperlink address with the clipboard text, as soon as you click the hyperlink button. I’d love to see that functionality on the Julia discourse site.
