"Open in LBRY" links should point to a permanent URL not vanity URL

Here's an example image posted by spee.ch: https://explorer.lbry.com/claims/94377e61712adf54ee2b78122d552682ac7d843f

It's not controlling the vanity name, because I just outbid it with a text file. The link on explorer should go to the image, not my text file. However, it goes to my text file.

I think Tom mentioned that canonical URLs aren't in chainquery, but that shouldn't prevent a fix because you can just use https://lbry.tv/name:claim_id.

Thanks for the comment, that will be solved in the new explorer.
