            Bug ID: 46027
           Summary: VisualEditor: Changes to auto-external links not
                    persisting
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: User Interface
          Assignee: [email protected]

After editing the link text of external links which consist of just the full
url in MediaWiki syntax (and therefore render as <a rel="mw:ExtLink/URL"
href="http://google.com";>http://google.com</a> in HTML), the diff shows no
change. 

There is also a question of confusing the user here as they may assume the link
text and the url are somehow automatically linked, whereas currently the link
inspector always deals with them separately.

Perhaps we need another mode for the link inspector when dealing with
"mw:ExtLink/URL" where the link text and the url are kept the same until the
user explicitly says otherwise.
