If you look at the two situations independently this is not how it works. The
second situation is exactly like you typed "14. century". Try it: Type "14.
century". The precision will be auto-detected as "century". This is correct,
right? Now try to change the precision to "year". What do you expect?

I'm thinking about the following change: When clicking "edit" the input field
should not contain "14. century" but "1400" with the precision set to
"century". Basically: Limit the precision of the editable value to "max. year".
Unfortunately I'm not sure if this is an easy fix. It might need an additional
API request.

Additionally the precision selector should be expanded automatically when the
precision is not "year".
