Bug Description

As per our discussion in #ubuntu-devel:

I would like to see the ability for an instructor to "opt out" links from being loaded in the Lernid browser. This would be useful in instances were an instructor is listing multiple links at one time for reference, but does not want all of the links to load... Such as in the example I showed you in the Ubuntu User Days log. Per our discussion, something like:

[http://foo.com] would NOT load in the browser, where:
http://foobar.com would load in the browser.

I thought about adding a cooldown to the browser so if you post a link less than X seconds after the last link was loaded it will only get added to the drop down box but I don't know if it would be too confusing for the user. Any thoughts on that?

I personally still think that there should be the ability for an instructor
to opt-out the link loading so that (s)he can completely control what
happens... Otherwise they still don't have control.
