Description

In link fields (TCEform type input + link wizard), the links are displayed as stored in the database.

Example:
- Content element, field Header Link (tt_content.header_link)
- Link to page "Products" (ID 52, rootline /en/Company/)
- Target "_blank"

Result:

Input field, value: 52 _blank

It's really hard to guess what page this could be, especially for a normal user.

So my suggestion is to display the page path and target information below the input field:

Input field, value: 52 _blank
Page /en/Company/Products/ (Target: New window)

For popups:

Page /en/Company/Products/ (Open in window: 400x600)

Also, this could implemented for the other link types:

File fileadmin/user_upload/file.pdf (Target: New window)
Folder fileadmin/user_upload/ (Target: New window)
External URL: http://www.foobar.com (Target: New window)
Email foo@bar.com

All the labels already exist, so no new locallang information has to be set.
