Implementation detail..

The mouse position there is only needed to obtain the URL from the cell via
ScGridWindow::GetEditUrl() and for the tiled rendering case. Separating that
out and factoring out all the address conversion then would only need a
GetEditUrl() on the currently active cell for the keyboard case.

For ScGlobal::OpenURL() it's about the active view shell/frame and mouse click
modifier keys. The view shell/frame is the same for a Ctrl+Enter (or whatever)
and whether to evaluate the mouse click modifier (and what happens if not)
could be made a parameter, defaulted to current behaviour.

How should that work? You'd have to navigate the mouse to position it on cells
to emulate the click. Sounds more like a pain than a gain.

That does not sound like a good idea..
