Description

Some websites (especially legacy sites) may not work well with regular linkhints (sadfweqjklcmpgh) and may require the use of the link's name and characters for link-hint filtering. This is however slower. This could be remedied by including the option for domain specific options, so that on the domains that work better with links name and characters can have that setting, while others may have the "regular" way.

Done means users can configure the alternate filtering behavior for selected domains without changing other sites.
