Comment 3 for bug 409585

@Mary,

I agree that this is problematic. Another issue that I run into sometimes is that I accidentally delete the last character of the shortened URL without realizing it and then send a busted link. It would be nice to have a good solution for these problems.

I'm open to suggestions for how this should be exposed through the UI. I like the idea of showing the original URL when the user hovers the mouse over a shortened URL, but I'd prefer something that can be done entirely with the keyboard. What about possibly showing the original URL in the statusbar immediately after it is converted?
