Linking to external Scala API docs in IntelliJ

Despite adding an external URL to the JavaDocs of my Scala 2.10.4 SDK library setup in IntelliJ 15.0.1 (Project Settings -> Global Libraries -> scala-sdk-2.10.4 -> JavaDocs) [see screenshot below], the little blue arrow that (should) link to external documentation in the quick documentation viewer ([F1]) does not link to the external Scala documentation, instead remaining grayed out. Neither does the keyboard shortcut to view external documentation work ([Shift]-[F1]). How do I link to the external ScalaDoc SDK API documents, so that I can quickly open the online documentation (locally or on scala-lang.org, doesn't matter) for the content my cursor is on in the IntelliJ editor in the browser?

Unfortunately this is still an outstanding feature for the Scala plugin: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/SCL-5550

This was added 4 years ago and commented upon as quick to implement - perhaps chase JetBrains to implement
