That's cool. I ho= pe Matts change gets merged soon. Then the issue becomes how do people find= out about this capability? Expecting people to learn how to hand-craft Bit= coin links won't work. But all modern operating systems support copy/pa= ste and drag/drop of rich content. Qt probably makes it easy to expose an U= I like this:

=C2=A0 =C2=A0Pay me =C2=A0 =C2=A0[Copy to clipboard]

Clicking the l= ink in the UI would pop up an alert saying something like

=C2=A0 =C2=A0"You can drag this link to an email, chat = window or editing program."

Good idea! This could be integrated with the QR-code generation (https://github.com/bitcoin= /bitcoin/pull/629) which adds "create a payment link" functio= nality (but currently only "exports" this link as a QR code).
