20788,Add widget instance argument to widget_links_args filter,ragulka,,"Using the `widget_links_args` filter (used in the default Links Widget class) as it is right now is a bit useless because one does not have access to the widget instance that applies the filter.

Widget instance may contain custom variables set by custom fields that may have been added to the widget form by plugins or themes using other filters.

Being able to access widget instance from within the filter function gives developers lots of possibilities to customize the widget.

My suggestion is simple: add `$instance` argument to the `widget_links_args` filter, like this (wp-includes/default-widget.php line 113):
{{{
wp_list_bookmarks(apply_filters('widget_links_args', array(
	'title_before' => $before_title, 'title_after' => $after_title,
	'category_before' => $before_widget, 'category_after' => $after_widget,
	'show_images' => $show_images, 'show_description' => $show_description,
	'show_name' => $show_name, 'show_rating' => $show_rating,
	'category' => $category, 'class' => 'linkcat widget'
), $instance ));
