Description

When I add the follwing to site.xml:

 
<links>
  <item name="BLAH" href="http://xyz.com/blah"/>
</links>

The generated html output is:

 
<a href="blah">BLAH</a>

This is wrong, if I stipulate "http://*" this should be an external (and absolute link), the generated html should have an absolute href url, like this:

 
<a href="http://xyz.com/blah">BLAH</a>

The conditions when this relative href translation occurs is when I have have ${project.url}=="http://xyz.com" in my pom.xml, like this:

 
<project>
  ...
  <url>http://xyz.com</url>
  ...
</project>
