Feature description

A lot of sites that require being logged in to visit certain pages will redirect you to a login screen if you're not logged in, depending on what you're attempting to access. This isn't typically an issue if you're just opening a link with a different browser or sharing a link with someone else who regularly uses the site, and it's somewhat mitigated if the site properly tracks the origin URL and redirects you there after logging in (or detecting that you're already logged in), but otherwise, it can be very annoying. Since LinkSheet doesn't have access to your sessions within other browsers at all, links to restricted areas of any such sites will always result in the redirect leading to a login page.

Perhaps an option to revert back to the previous URL if it's detected that the resulting URL is a login page could help here? This could be done with a quick search to check if the resulting URL contains "login", "signup", "register" or something similar.
