Right now it seems that the module only supports redirection to nodes. Is there a way to also get it to redirect to links?

This module appears to rely on the link module or the references module. So if you want it to redirect to a URL you'll probably have to install the link module which will allow you to enter a URL.

The link module is already installed, but I only get an autocomplete field for nodes (and there does not seem to be a setting letting me choose otherwise)

What I did was create a link field on my entity. Configuring the field is like configuring any other link field. It took me a while to figure out that I had to go to the "manage display" tab and change the "format" for the link field to redirect. I would give that a shot.

@isolesen: as caschbre explains, this doesn't provide a field widget, it's a display formatter :)

Doh. You are right. I was kind of expecting the nodereference and link mixed together, but off course that was not the case. Sorry!
