VisualEditor: Link button and its shortcut should trigger a dialog also when no text is selected
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I like the way links are inserted in Vector toolbar and I'd like to see the same dialog in the Visual editor. If any text is selected the fields should be pre-filled as they are in Vector. I think many now-users will expect this as well as users of other visual editors. Text rarely need to be selected for this to work from my experience.

This was fixed in the inspector re-write and as merged into master last month.
The Link Inspector can now be opened without text selected. On Inspector close, the link text defaults to the location.
