How to create a custom field of type URL in RTC?

 I am trying to create a custom field of type URL.  The type does not exist, and Small String does not behave like a URL (i.e. it does not recognize that it is), and Medium HTML could work but it is overkill.

What other options do I have?

 Hello Guislain,
URL typed custom attribute will be addressed with URI type custom attribute (90151)
For now, you may use HTML attribute.

Thanks.
Eric.

We tried to use an HTML attribute with some HTML injection to be able to add description to URL:
[a href="https://localhost/jazz/web/"]Login to Jazz repository[/a]
On Eclipse UI we can see the attribute as expected, so the trick works! :P
Sadly, on web UI the HTML content is not parsed and we got only the raw HTML.
Cheers.
