Description

Reported by @Patriccck

Steps to reproduce:

Put on your glasses.
Type something, including some links, in the Reply tools' visual mode.
Select the text (e.g., ⌘A).

There are thin lines before and after each link. Mostly the lines are white, about one pixel wide, but sometimes they're a darker shade of blue (something overlapping?).

The screenshot shows a zoomed-in spot at the end of the second link.

I think this is fixed right ?

Doesn't seem to be fixed for me. How bad it looks probably depends on your browser/OS/screen. On my laptop, I get consistent 2x blue lines on every link when using Chrome, and rare white lines on some links (depending on the text typed) when using Firefox.
