Bug #: 37939

partially-select some text for linking
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Platform: All

Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement

>From bug 33091:
- 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.
