Ability to Link Mounts

[Dazling]

Just had this thought come up based on someone earlier messaging me to ask what my mount was. If easy to implement, it'd be nice to be able to ctrl + right click a mount to easily link what it is similar to an item. That way I'm not mousing over a mount to remember that it's called "Bone Devil Armored Nightmare" or whatever.

When mounted, an icon with your mount name appears in your buff bar and others can see it if they examine your toon

The problem with this is Mounts (and cosmetic pets) aren't items.
They don't appear to have an item ID that would allow players to link to them.

Asking for a link to that is the same as asking a link to a Feat or Enhancement. It could probably be done, but it's a decent amount of work and testing for something you can already approximate by Inspecting players.

It's not a bad suggestion, and I don't know just how complex DDO's code is in the background enough to know how easy/hard this would become, but I reckon it might be a bit harder than it looks at first glance. Given that mounts used to be items, that part of the code might still exist, but it'd still require database updates or at least context updates.
