Would it be default behaviour to redirect through phpmyadmin.net, or is at an option?
Probably as an option (enabled by default if phpMyAdmin is not using SSL).
What if phpmyadmin.net is unavailable (down, or not reachable by the network where a local version of pma is installed), will links in PMA not work?
Exactly this is a problem I see as well.
If an external redirector is used, isn't the Referer sent with the HTTP request header, traveling the internet in cleartext?
Yes. Anyway currently almost all outgoing links are HTTP, so the information does travel unencrypted as well. The advantage would be that it is not available to others as easily as now (referer is stored in web server logs, processed by statistic tools such as Google Analytics and so on).
