Research direction

Find how chat already suppresses the default URL tooltip for macro:// links and shows formatted macro info instead. Reuse that path for lib:// links so hover shows player-relevant details rather than the raw URL. Confirm by outputting a lib:// link in chat and checking the tooltip matches the macro:// pattern.

Description

Describe the Problem

For macro:// links in chat, we suppress the default tooltip (the URL) and instead display formatted information about the macro, hiding the URL. But for lib:// links, despite filling the same role and being subject to the same tooltip supression options, we show the URL verbatim.

The Solution you'd like

Similar to a macro:// links, show whatever information is pertinent to players when a lib:// link is output to chat.
