--- Comment #1 from James Forrester <[email protected]> ---
This is indeed intentional (and took some time to get right). If the cursor is
in, or directly adjacent to, a word, so that you can link a word quickly as a
keyboard user without having to use a mouse or do keyboard-based
shift-selection.

However, this is meant to not trigger when you're not in the "context" of a
word, so it does some fancy language-dependent Unicode whitespace detection; it
should be doing this for punctuation but apparently isn't, so referring to Ed
to investigate.
