Interesting.
A "link" in the sense of a web-link with appropriate media-type or flavour is, to my understanding, something ok. It's a path only (it's not access to that path) and it is even formulated for "web purpose". I agree it's a risk but since it's only when the user pastes intentionally, I don't think it is a risk to be excluded.
Actually, if on my Mac now, I copy a file from the Finder and paste plain text in jEdit, I get the file-name, that's ok I think.
A "link" in the OLE sense has no way to be allowed.
You did mean the first form, did you not?
