1148751 - Proper fix for Insert Link by context menu does not work in Thunderbird 31.0+ - doesn't show a Paste menu item (paste using ctrl+v works fine)

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[Magnus Melin [:mkmelin]]

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1044336 +++

Steps to reproduce:

Attempted to insert link in composing a message.  Link Properties box appears.  When I try to copy a URL into Link Location, I right click on the Link Location bar ( in order to paste the URL in) and receive the message "(no named anchors or headings in this page)"


Actual results:

No paste menu.

Bug 1044336 implemented the workaround that if there are no links, the paste menu is shown.

This bug should make the pasting + link selection work for all cases in one way or another.
