The D7 Modules page already has links to the module's (a) Permissions (b) Configure. For completeness, why not add links to a module's (c) Help page (d) Drupal module project page (e) An icon indicating whether the Update page is showing an update.

It would also be more ergonomic to place links (a) to (e) into the same cell in the same column.

I'd like to see this too. At the moment I am going through #192962: GHOP #24: Module Administration page improvements to see if what we propose here has already been either implemented or requested.

I'd like to also see links that would open README.txt/INSTALL.txt as well where available.

Since the addition of links would make it a huge list I'd like to propose that the module's name should become the link to the project page (that's one less link). The help link is already implemented for modules that support Advanced help, unless you are referring to the project's help page in d.o. (in which case I think the user is only a click away from after visiting the project's page, thus making it superfluous).

While at it, I completely disagree with the way that "$extra" links are rendered in a separate table cell each. Please see attached screenshots where it shows how tables are messed up in narrow themes (like the core bartik) and how much more clean it looks when the extra links are rendered in a single cell.

...btw the first screenie serves as a mockup for this request I have for Coder: #883966: The '(Code Review)' link should be rendered with the extra links + It should be 'Code review' instead of 'Code Review'
