Description WhatamIdoing 2014-08-18 19:22:48 UTC
Steps to reproduce:

1.  Type some text:  "Foo bar baz bat"

2.  Select the last word, because you want to create a wikilink before you finish typing the sentence.

3.  Type Command-K to create a link.  

4.  Make a link.  Click "Done".

5.  Finish typing the sentence.

6.  Oops, where did [[bat]] go?


Results:

When you exit the link inspector, the linked text remains highlighted, and typing results in it being overwritten by your next character.  

Expectation:  after I've made a link, de-select the link and put the cursor at the end of the word, so I can keep writing.
