URL merge fields in Email Templates

It would be nice if the URL merge field that can copy/pasted into an email template displayed as a hyperlink with a short name (such as "Logon"), rather than just pasting in a long website address that the recipient then has to copy and paste out of the email themselves. I was pretty surprised when I realized this is what the merge field resulted in, as its pretty unpolished looking. Thanks for considering.

    Hi Sammie, Thanks for your reply! Just so you know, I asked Support this question and they told me it would be a great suggestion to post here on this board - maybe they didn't understand what I was asking. Just to recap - copy the link from the 'Merge Fields' list on the far right, and paste it into the 'Insert Link' line that opens when you click the chain icon above the email text editor. Never would have figured that out. Thanks.

    I usually take that merge field for the logon and hyperlink it in the email template myself (http://prntscr.com/nhbb81). It's an extra step, but totally doable if this is important to you :)
