(2) Currently the weblink.module includes a [weblink:*] filter that handles (a) for external links. I believe that filter functionality should be split out from the weblink module so that it can be used for any links handled by the Links API [6] independently of the weblink node type.
I'll respond separately to the rest of the post (excellent discussion, btw), but wanted to treat this separately.
I've already ported the weblink filter into the base functionality of the new Links Package. It works fairly similarly to what you describe. Check the README, online help documentation, and source code comments for details.
Oops ... I see I was careless (and incorrect) with my references to the weblink module. I was actually referring to the links_weblink.module that is part of the new Links Package. I actually never used the old weblinks.module at all. So my suggestion still stands, to move the filtering functionality out of the links_weblink.module so that it can be used without enabling the weblink node type. Sorry for the confusion, Ray
