This is still reproducible, and pretty annoying for consumers like Thunderbird (see TB bug 554264). Technically, after creating a link from selected text (e.g. at the end of message body), we'd want the cursor to automatically forward to the position just outside the anchor (which is possible as seen with pressing Ctrl+End after link creation in Thunderbird): <a href="foo.bar">Linktext</a>|</br>
