* Edit a page * Put cursor at the end of a line * Go to toolbar and Insert new link * The input field is focussed, blur it by clicking somewhere inside the inspector outside the input field * Click the trash can (since there is no "x" close button, that's the closest I can find in the top left or right corner) * The inspector clears itself but stays behind (crashes half-way closing) Uncaught Error: No class registered by that name: undefined ve.Factory.js:62 ve.Factory.create ve.Factory.js:62 ve.dm.SurfaceFragment.annotateContent ve.dm.SurfaceFragment.js:518 ve.ui.AnnotationInspector.onClose ve.ui.AnnotationInspector.js:162 ve.ui.Window.close ve.ui.Window.js:281 ve.ui.Inspector.onRemoveButtonClick ve.ui.Inspector.js:89 oo.EventEmitter.emit oo.js:421 ve.ui.IconButtonWidget.onClick ve.ui.IconButtonWidget.js:61 proxy load.php?debug=true&lang=en&modules=jquery%2Cmediawiki&only=scripts&skin=vector&version=20130715T175253Z:775 jQuery.event.dispatch load.php?debug=true&lang=en&modules=jquery%2Cmediawiki&only=scripts&skin=vector&version=20130715T175253Z:3058 elemData.handle.eventHandle An empty inspector stays behind and the user can no longer interact with any links at this point. When doing anything (scrolling, typing) the inspector will hide. Except the bubble tip on top, that one stays behind...
Note, this doesn't seem a race condition or anything. I'm giving it at least half a second to a second of time between each distinct action.

It could be just be, but I run into this quite often. Every time it happens the interface crashes unrecoverably and all work is lost.
I've just tested this and can reproduce it except for comment 3 - in my test I was able to do everything except link and the save worked as expected.
Bug 51415 is reporting the same JS error in the same component, with different steps to reproduce.
I can reproduce this by putting the cursor on a blank line (such as an empty page), clicking link inspector icon, then pressing key 'Esc'.
