Make these thingies links to their respective pages, please:
These UI elements have a specific job, adding links would detract from that.
Hrm? That really doesn't make much sense. Adding links does not necessarily require a change in appearance, correct? (Aside from underlining on hover, or something along those lines.) So if the only effect is purely functional and not visual, how would that "detract from their job?"
In any case, I expect them to be clickable, and you don't gain anything by keeping them unclickable (other than making it that much harder to find what you're looking for).
