Description
It would be valuable to know:
- which clicks to piwik.org are clicked
- which ones are most clicked
- on which report / page, do users most click on given link?
Could we track outlinks to `*.piwik.org` domains?
Notes
- often the clicks actually link to a local URL: `http://demo.piwik.org/index.php?module=Proxy&action=redirect&url=http://piwik.org/faq/` therefore we need to hook into this `redirect` action I guess?
- maybe we only need to track those `redirect` and don't need to track outlinks in JS

Research direction
Start by inspecting the plugin's handling of the `redirect` action and the example local URL containing a `url` parameter. Determine how clicks to `*.piwik.org` can be identified and associated with the report or page, then verify that the resulting usage data distinguishes the most-clicked links.
