Feature Request: automatically make url links in comments clickable

I'd love if all versions of acrobat had the automatic function where if someone pastes a URL in a comment it is clickable.

 

I work in a studio that does a lot of product related designs and when the marketing team provides feedback they do so in a marked up pdf using comments (they often have little to no knowledge of how to do more complex things in acrobat so would not use "proper" ways to add links. We often get design feedback via comment markups and they might paste 6 links in a comment that I then have to painstakingly individually copy just to paste in browser and open. It would save a ton of time if they were clickable without anyone having to do anything (like in emails/slack/word/other apps and programs). 

 

Thank you

I think it's technically possible, but not implemented in Acrobat.

You should post your request here, though: https://www.adobe.com/products/wishform.html

I would, but that form doesn't seem to be working or visible.

You need to click the "Acrobat Pro or Standard" link, which opens this page:

Then comes the fun part. You can't just post a new idea. You have to use the search function first.

Only after you searched the list of past suggestions can you make a new one:
