Automatically link embedded artifacts to be able to find where embedded artifacts are used

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

When embedding images (or artifacts in general) in other artifacts, the artifact that embeds the image knows about the embedded artifact and you can e.g. open this artifact. The embedded artifact is just located anywhere and does not know anything about being embedded anywhere. This is very bad when trying to understand things, when needing to know where this artifact is used, …

As there is already an "embeds" link predefined in DNG and there is an option to set such an embeds link between an artifact and its embedded artifact, the tool shall (a bit similar to "Term Reference")

  • Preselect the "traceability link type" when using e.g. the "insert image" dialog
  • Set this "embeds" relation automatically when using "copy / paste" of an image (or at least show the "create matching trace link" pop-up with preselected link type)
  • When manually selecting "create matching trace link" prefill the link type with "embeds"
  • When applying the first link constraint at least show a warning that any "embeds" constraint should be added (e.g. ANY embeds ANY)
