Links that break into a new line don't get recognized completely

[preetmishra]

Whenever any link gets broken into a new line, hovering the mouse over them only recognizes the first line, the one with 'https://', as a link.

This behaviour makes these links invalid to use (e.g. opening the link in any web browser).

@preetmishra This is improved dramatically now that #703 is merged, but with a FAQ entry and the popup I think we can definitely close this.

@neiljp While this is improved, it is still unusable when the links spread across, say, two lines. We may want to wait until we handle all the links via #708 and its follow-ups to close this (which I believe is what you meant).

@preetmishra Do you think this is fixed now?

[preetmishra]

@neiljp This is mostly fixed. We have drastically decreased the number of cases where the links could split over two lines. However, we still don't have a way to make links that are split over two lines usable.

I believe we could close this once we support handling internal/external links or atleast copying links to the clipboard.
