Description Chris McMahon 2014-11-14 17:12:30 UTC

Edit a page on beta labs e.g. http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Links_VisualEditor_Test?vehidebetadialog=true&veaction=edit

Click the Links inspector

Note that the "Done" button is enabled

Quickly paste (do not type by hand) an external link e.g. http://www.example.com in the link field

Note that upon pasting "http://www.example.com", VE takes some time before displaying the "External link/New page" overlay. 

If the user clicks "Done" after pasting text in the link field but before the "External link/New page" overlay appears, VE creates a local link [[foo]] instead of the desired external link [http://www.example.com foo]
