It would be great to link to other records in the comment section of records, in the same way we can reference collaborators using the @ feature. It could use the same @ function, or perhaps use # as a pre-cursor. For example, if I typed the following:

    Hey, @Jane Doe, you can find more details about that here: #Record Name

Where the โ€œ#Record Nameโ€ links to the record in Airtable.

Does that make sense?

This would be a really useful feature. For example, Asana has a similar function, where you can mention users (like Airtable), but also other records.

Very well described, would really like to see this implemented. Been used to using it in other tools I use as it seems frequently implemented, missing it being here in AirTable as I evaluateโ€ฆ
