"Link to the civicrm contact" goes to civi entity contact, not civicrm contact

Problem/Motivation

In the recent version of this there is now a "Link to the civicrm contact" on a Display Name field. It takes the user to eg /civicrm-contact/[cid].

This will be great for those using entities for contacts, but i suspect the majority of users wanting this will be intending the link to go to civicrm/contact/view?reset=1&cid=[cid]

Steps to reproduce

Add a Display Name field to pretty much any civi based View

Proposed resolution

Add an alternate radio option
- Link to the civicrm contact (which goes to /civicrm/contact/view?reset=1&cid=[cid])
- Link to the civicrm contact entity (which goes to /civicrm-contact/[cid])

    I tried the latest dev-release, but don't see the "Link to the civicrm contact" option. Maybe it was removed in 4.x?

    This works well in the "Rewrite results" > "Output this field as a custom link" option for "Display Name", with "Contact ID" hidden, and placed above it:

    civicrm/contact/view?reset=1&cid={{ id }}
