Description WhatamIdoing 2013-08-28 18:42:04 UTC

This is somewhat related to bug 50321.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open your own sandbox/userpage (not a page in the mainspace) in VisualEditor.
2. Add a link to a word ("xxx").
3. Control-click/right-click/command-click the new link to open the link in a new tab or new window.
4. Discover that VisualEditor has sent you to an invalid URL:  http://en.wikipedia.org/w/Xxx or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Whatamidoing_(WMF)/Xxx

This is bug 48915 although the bug title "VisualEditor: Respect Parsoid's <base>" describes the solution not the effect so I'm not surprised you didn't find it.
