Dear dev list,

I would like to propose an extension of the Link interface with a
setAbsoluteURI(String absoluteURI) method, or something alike. This will
give more flexibility when handeling the link in the LinkCreationListener.

In my uppercase, where I need the locale of the browser displayed as the
first part of the URI (eg http://domain.com/en_US/myPage), I use a
dispatcher to detect the locale (or change to it), and have to completely
copy the LinkFactoryImpl into my own LocaleAwareLinkFactory (which gets
contributed as an alias) to be able to set the URI to what I want on Link
instantiation. If I can change the URI at a later stage I only need to add
my own LinkCreationListener.

If no one objects I'll go ahead and create a ticket in JIRA.

Cheer,
Joost
