描述
Description
This feature request entails the addition of an opt-in feature for extra links which are not stored as an XCom, for static URLs and reduced metaDB bloat.
Use case/motivation
As far as I'm aware, extra links are only supported via XComs. This makes sense for dynamic, task-instance specific / DAG-run specific URLs (e.g. a link to an external Spark job); however, XComs are not an ideal mechanism for static URLs which are only specific to the given operator (rather than the task instance). For example, a very common use case for the Extra Links feature is to point to a static, operator-specific documentation page. Yet, storing that URL in an XCom for each task instance is clearly not ideal in that circumstance, and only adds bloat to the metaDB.
