Broken links report needs to show node containing the broken link

Hi. I installed link checker today and it seems to be working quite nicely, thanks!

However, when I look at the report (in admin reports), and in the cron log, and in watchdog, the entries show the broken link, but not the node containing the broken link (at least not for my custom content types that are being scanned). This seems like a strange omission. Reviewing the issues, I see several entries about needing to create a custom view to show both the broken link and the node that contains the error. I tried to figure out how to do this but did not get very far. I do see this can be determined by looking in the db: the linkchecker_link and linkchecker_node tables can be joined to show info about nodes containing broken links. But I was expecting a simpler source of this info to be available, or at least instructions for how to create a view that shows the nodes containing the broken links

Am I missing something?

Help?

Thanks

    Apologies, now that cron has processed more broken links, I am now seeing, on the right side of the broken links report, items like: "Edit node 1965" which allows editing the node that contains the broken link. At first, for most broken links, that section was filled with "This link was not found in any content."

    Question: how does a link get into the broken links report if it was not found in any content?
