public interface I_CmsLinkParseable
This interface serves to retrieve all links from a given file by parsing.

Relation validation for a file is only enabled if the file's resource type implements this interface. so, files with resource types that do not implement this interface don't get validated for broken links, during publsihing, for instance.

This interface is used to build the internal relation information, but it is not directly used to validate the relations.
