Reply link is inserted not at the end of the line when a signature is followed by an image (or other stuff which is not text)

Description

The placement of Reply link looks wrong here. Is it?

Yes, that looks wrong! The "Reply" link should be at the end of the line, like in the previous example (point 2). There is an invisible image in the comment where the link is inserted:

In de kaderkoppen zie ik lelijke horizontale streepjes van ca. 1 cm lang. (Links 2 streepjes, rechter kader 1) Kunnen die er uit? {{Gebruiker:Tjako_van_Schie/Handtekening}} 6 feb 2008 22:56 (CET) p.s. volgens mij is het de [[afbeelding:pix.gif]] die de boosdoener is.

I think we're incorrectly inserting the link at the end of the "text node", rather than at the end of the paragraph. (Also, I'm pretty sure the commenter here meant to link to the image rather than embed it, the correct syntax for that would be [[:afbeelding:pix.gif]], note the ':' at the beginning.)

This can't be tested until wmf.23 deployment. So even though this got marked as high priority, it will have to wait.
