Now, I have actually not seen the ui in question so I might be totally
off track here... Anyways; you can't show clickable hyperlinks a
treeview or iconview - as is what it appears you are suggesting.

Writing a custom cellrenderer would be possible, but a lot of work. I
actually also looked into this a while back (in addition to my
CompositeCellRenderer I mentioned a few days ago). Possible, but
tricky :-D
