On iOS: the context doesn't appear, but the keyboard does get dismissed. A second tap on the link open the context.

A second tap on the link open the context.

This is a fortunate bug in iOS. The second tap is supposed to take you into link label editing, which is what happens on Andoird, so there is no way to get into link editing, other than by clicking a different link or contextable item first.
