Better said, two ideas:
1. the first one is doable: do not clear the part description from status bar immediately after mouse cursor is out of the part. I'd add "think up how to display a complete description" because many times the description text is too long for the status bar
2. URLs, configurable - great idea! However, it'd need a transition from LDCAD part codes to BL ones, which is an ongoing project, AFAIK.
Both hints and selection properties are better handled in my 2.0 plans.
1.7 is a '2.0 takes to long so lets do another 1.x to fast-track some fun stuff' version So I don't want to big changes to the way things generally work. That said I could add a simple option to not clear the hint bar when the mouse is on nothing.
The second point might be possible using a macro, but I'll have to look into that some more know for sure.
