Description

I think the Link menu's "Remove" item list should display the "Connection Type" (e.g. udpin, udpout, etc) being used. As it is you can have multiple options that look identical. Perhaps I've misunderstood something but it seems odd.

What else is odd is that I didn't enter IP addresses of 0.0.0.0, I entered 127.0.0.1.

Finally I wonder why I can't remove the final link. If I can add it, shouldn't I be able to remove it?

Research direction

The payload names no files or tests. First locate the implementation of the Link menu's Remove list and reproduce the case with udpin/udpout links using 127.0.0.1. Done should distinguish entries by connection type, clarify the displayed address, and define the expected behavior for removing the final link.
