Pressing down arrow on keyboard does not navigate to the next line if it is starts with a link
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

I first noticed this inside CX, but it happens in VE too.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Use a narrow screen (makes it more likely that some line starts with a link)
  • Ensure the cursor is a beginning of a line which does not start with a link
  • Press down until you reach a line which starts with a link

Observed: Cursor actually jumps to the end of the current line, which sometimes has the blue background indicating we are inside the link. Pressing down from this position does nothing.

Expected: Cursor does not jump to the end of the current line and it is possible to move further by pressing down again.

Here is an example when we get inside a link

Here is an example when we do not get inside a link, but the cursor still gets stuck at the end:
