Details

This is highly related to 40911 which was fixed. But if the case is only a single word you highlighted (no spaces) and drag it into the same window, it will load it as a URL. Seems to me to be a problem with the previous fix, but the owner of the other bug told me to create a new one, so I am. Dragging a single word should act the same as dragging multiple words. Which is to not load as a url in the same window, and to load it if you drag it into another window, I believe.
changing component and reassigning; pink--this is really a browser-specific issue; do you know someone else who can fix this?

is the single-word case different if you drop it into a different window? eg, should we load a single as a url when the text comes from composer, or mail, or a text editor? That's what 4.x does. If the problem is only that it's w/in the same window, it's a dupe of 39326 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 39326 ***
