            Bug ID: 126329
           Summary: Allow inline editing of URLs in editeng
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: s.mehrbrodt at gmail.com

URLs in editeng are fields (while in Writer they are just character
attributes).

That means, the cursor can't travel through them as they are represented by a
single character internally.

This makes URL editing hard compared to Writer. One has to right click on a
link, select "Edit Link" and then update the link text.

Instead it should be possible to directly edit the URL text as any other text
(and as it is possible in Writer).

Probably we can't get rid of the field nature the URL currently has (to not
break API) but we can surely add inline field editing as we have in Writer for
certain fields.
