Browser Difference: Link selection is incosistent

[Jakub Ś]

This ticket is an extension to #9146 and #9150. While there is clearly bug in Opera and Webkit, I'm not sure if the below case is a bug or just different behaviour that can't be fixed.

To Reproduce:

• Open the AJAX sample and create an editor.
• Without focusing it, hit the link button or select some sample text and hit link button it doesn't matter.
• Insert some dummy link, see that it's created and selected.
• Leaving the selection as is, type a few characters.

Result: in IE and in Firefox whole typed text becomes a link .

NOTE:
In all browsers, when using the above TC for inline styles, they are continued. Should the same rule be used for links or perhaps links shoudl not be continued?

This issue is more of the question whether IE and FF behaviour is correct (IMHO is) while #9146 is bug.
