 * <li>{@link IHyperlinkPresenterExtension2} since version 3.7, adds the ability distinguish between
 * the modes in which the control either takes focus or not when visible.</li>
 * </ul>

 * Clients may implement this interface. A default implementation is provided through
 * {@link org.eclipse.jface.text.hyperlink.DefaultHyperlinkPresenter}.
