@Dustin Stokes - Yes, IE presents regular problems when using an OpenURL addon or a catalog addon. We recently discovered that ScienceDirect, one of our larger full text platforms, no longer works correctly with Internet Explorer, though Edge does. Chrome or Firefox would be preferable (or perhaps coding for users' browser defaults), but in any case the out-of-support Internet Explorer should be deprecated.

Piggybacking on Kel's comment -- perhaps, infrastructure to open a URL on demand in an /external browser/, in a new window/tab using the computer/device's default browser rather than inside the ILLiad frame, could do this simply and effectively without requiring as much development time?
This sort of functionality could feasibly introduce the more basic ILLiad addons -- the ones that just result in a page opening -- to Tipasa's environment. I could see a "Toolkit" box on the side of a request view, in which a list of enabled custom links was provided. It would basically just need access to request data to insert into something like an OpenURL resolver's custom link/service syntax.
