Currently the ability to show/hide images and links fields on the edit forms are combined. In J4 we want to try and simplify the forms etc but with these fields being combined it is hard.
Separate the single option into two options - one for images and one for links
Change links to be hidden by default on new installs
For b/c this would only be on new installs but instead of creating two new values we could keep the existing one for "show images" and only add a new one for "show links" and in addition add extra code so that even though "show links" defaults to hide we additionally check to see if the fields have a value and then ignore the param setting of hide and show them anyway.

Sorry only seeing this now. I agree with the proposal. I personally don't think I have ever seen these links used. With the introduction of custom fields, I can't imagine I ever will.
Reopen to see if anyone else comments

Is it acceptable not to add new parameter,
but to do this with the existing parameter
which will be (mostly) B/C too ...
** Image and Links
0: No, (Old text: Hide)
1: Both (Old text: Show)
2: Images
3. Links
More interested in the question of doing such things

No one has an opinion on this?
