 * Since installing the Tinymce ‘upgrade’, I can no longer select a link, click 
   on it in order to retrieve/copy the url. In fact the entire interface has changed(
   for the worse).
 * Now it comes with an alleged search option but it doesn’t show the actual url,
   instead you get a bunch of file names, so unless you know the name the of the
   file, it’s hit and miss.
 * What was wrong with the way it used to be configured? If it ain’t broke, don’t
   fix it. What is wrong with programmers, they’re always fiddling with stuff but
   we, the users, search in vain for any improvement made and as with this case,
   a totally unnecessary ‘improvement’. All it’s done is made my job take more time
   to do.
 * PS: I’ve fiddled around with the settings in tinymce but it made no difference
   short of turning it off.

 * PPS: I turned off tiniymce advanced and it makes no difference, except I have
   less menu options, but you still get the same awful interface and you still can’t
   click on the link button when a link is highlighted in the text. Disastrous!
