Lost in what sense? When it is printed?
IIRC, the default print (xsl-fo) docbook stylesheets render the URL in a
foot note. So in that sense the URL is not lost either. But I could be
wrong - it *is* Friday, after all.
If so, the way we work around
this for the magazine is to have a print CSS that prints the URL in
parentheses after the link. Thus, you get the best of both worlds--nice
readable links in web format and printed URLs for printouts.
