Problems with changing text of a link - some unification is needed

[Jakub Ś]

To reproduce:

1. Open replacebycode sample
2. Double click on link - a popup will open. Click OK on the popup. The link should be still selected. Another way to do it is to simply select the link with a mouse but there are some differences.
3. Start typing to change text of a link

Expected Result:
New text gets linked.

Actual Result:

• Opera - Link is lost and new text is being typed in new line. If you switch to source and back - text will go back to first line (CKEditor 3.0).
• Webkit - Only first letter gets linked (CKEditor 3.0).
• IE - text gets linked but till the first space (IMO this is correct)
• Firefox - If you select the whole link with a mouse - text typed even with spaces will get linked. If you doule click on a link and start typing link will be lost. This is because #8195 bug.

There are definetely problems in Opera and Chrome which should be fixed. As for Firefox - it will probably hard to make it work as other browsers.

NOTE: There is also a feature request for adding new text filed "Link Text" in Link Dialog #7154. It may solve the above issues but when implementing this feature one should take this ticket into account.
