Comment(by wenzeslaus):

 I'm not sure what user would expect. But you might be right. External
 links are special and the HTML rendering capabilities of the used widget
 are (currently) very limited. Perhaps, external links should be marked
 similarly to external links in wikis (e.g., with some special picture
 before or after). This is a topic for a special ticket since
 implementation is not trivial.

 Alternative solution, is to have a button there "Open current page in web
 browser" (or something shorter). This is what I would use sometimes even
 for manual pages. This feature can  be actually implemented regardless of
 the external links issue.
