Link it support for pages created using views

Does anybody know if there is something like this available for 6.x or can we use this patch as a base to create a patch for the 6.x version?

I did a quick update of the patch for 6.0.0-rc1, haven't tested it much, but it seems to work.

My experience with the patch is that it works well with one main caveat... the "data-entity-substitution-extra" attribute is not automatically added to the when choosing the view.

If I add it manually in source, save, and then go to add another link to a view, the second link will have it add automatically.

Seems very odd and have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why.

Like the idea of this patch and it's a shame the functionality isn't already there (pretty much every other entity type can be matched). Doesn't apply to 6.0 branch.

Did another quick tweak of the patch for 6.0.2 support.
Haven't tested it more than to see that linking views still work locally.

Noticed an issue with the patch at #25 so i made an update for it (This is for 6.0.0-rc1)

Okay tried reviewing this on 6.1.x and unfortunately does not apply

Updating the patch for 6.1.x-dev

Changed all instances of "View display" to "View page", since all displays with a path are page displays, as far as I know. And improved my patch name.

The patch in #35 did not work for me. I get the Views showing up in the linkit widget, yes, but I can't select anything (View or otherwise). I keep getting js errors like:

ReferenceError: substitution_extra is not defined

which points to the new line in js that the patch adds:

        $getAttributesInput('data-entity-substitution-extra', $context).val(substitution_extra);

and then sometimes I'm getting this js error:

Pattern attribute value \<front\>|\/|\/[^\/]+.*|\?.*|#.*|.*\(\d+\) is not a valid regular expression: Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression: /\<front\>|\/|\/[^\/]+.*|\?.*|#.*|.*\(\d+\)/v: Invalid escape
