Comment on How the Syrian Electronic Army Hacked The Onionparent

I would just be happy if clicking any link in an email just popped up dialog first with "Do you want to go to the following URL" with the real URL. I always copy URLs from emails and paste into the browser to be sure I'm getting the URL I think I am, and this is basically just giving me the same preview. For less qualified users, maybe it could bold/highlight the domain name (stripping the subdomains where all the phishing magic happens) and ask "are you sure you want to go to phishingdomain.com".
