right click in CSS text editor and select Create Rule from popup menu try to create a:link rule a:link is in the list of classes, but to create a class some suffix after "." is needed, It's right that a:link is called "pseudo-class" in specification, but because of it's between classes it's not possible to create new rule containg just a:link, a:visited, but you must create a:link.something
this is an enhancement.
the create rule dialog is likely to be removed as we now have its newer version available in the CSS Styles window.
