Can the title of the question be a "clean" link to the question itself?

+7
−0

Sometimes I find myself browsing through the site and want to share a question. If I arrived through a link to an answer, I do not have a good way to "clean" the URL and be able to get the URL of the question itself.

If we had this link, this would become easier to do: just click on the title and the newly loaded page will be the URL to share.

Also, this allows duplicating the current page in a single click: sometimes you may be in-line editing a post and want to see how it looked before your edit; by clicking on the title of the question you can do that immediately.

A clean link to the question also works as a refresh button. (1 comment)

Another use of the clean link is as an easy way to refresh the page. My browser no longer has a refresh button shown in the UI, so it is up to sites to provide that functionality on the site now.
