Web link in comments script

In previous version (12 and before - haven't checked 13) we used to be able to put a web link into the Comments script - in the format .... #http://www.jwhgroup.com.au

This used to actually work and open the appropriate web page.

In 14 this does not work any more.
Is this just a bug or has the format changed?
Maybe there is a registry switch that can be turned on to activate it? (I couldn't see one though).

This can come in handy for when you want to link directly to instructions on how to use the object (which is what I used to be able to do).

Same here on the Mac, link does not work in 14, but it does work in 13. Looks like a bug.

I forgot that you can add UI_BUTTON UI_LINK, ..... to the interface script.
This works just as well and allows for multiple buttons if needed.
