This would be a very simple but extremely helpful change. You only need to prepend http://dx.doi.org/ http://dx.doi.org/ in front of the DOI, and make the resulting link clickable.

There was at least Pirate University, articleak, and /r/scholar. Also, while it's okay to have a somewhat complexe form to fill when making a request, it's really sad that it's as much work to share a paper, it should be very easy, in particular when clicking "I have this, send it", the form should have only one field: the file upload, or at least have the other prefilled with the request's values.
