Except that only takes strict conversion into account, not the whole picture.

We don't use [[foo]]<nowiki/>bar in articles. While it should be possible to
do. It should not be something that WYSIWYG users should inadvertently do by
accident.

This should probably be handled with two changes:
- For strict conversion <a>foo</a>bar should be converted properly to
[[foo]]<nowiki/>bar
- The UI of the visual editor should have a change to the user's interaction
with link creation to make it harder to accidentally create things like
<a>foo</a>bar.

I'm not quite sure what the ui change should be. Perhaps something like making
it so that when you try to create a link the selection might be altered to
cover the full word. Something that would require the user to force the editor
to use the selection that would create a <nowiki/> instead of just accepting it
as-is.

Whatever the case, we do not want the user who partially selects a run of text
and turns it into a link to inadvertently create a <nowiki/> when they likely
intended to make a link of the whole thing.
