Description

For large complex models, it'd be very nice to be able to click on a type that's referenced in some property and have it link to the schema for that type (especially since types aren't displayed in any particular order, so scrolling to find them can be tedious). The current styling actually makes the type names look like links, but they're not.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the model and property rendering path in Swagger UI, then define the expected anchor and navigation behavior; done means clicking a referenced type opens the schema for that type.
