Comment:

 There is link code everywhere in core, but it really doesn't do too many
 crazy things. There were a few places I needed to add a filter or action,
 and there are some really weird back-compat actions that I doubt are ever
 used, but Links actually work well in a plugin.

 My code assumes that WP core creates the table and that WP will alter the
 table in the future. I also didn't port any of the legacy DB upgrade code
 for the table.

 My code is lacking documentation, but that can come later.

 I kept the same menu "slugs" (link-manager.php and link-add.php, etc) for
 the admin pages so plugins should remain compatible with the admin menu.
