Screenshot showing cursor at the beginning of the text "Yahoo"

Steps to reproduce:

-click on the link icon from the toolbar or use shortcut keys ctrl+k/command+k(MAC)
-Type the link on the dialog box that appears .
-Press "Enter" to apply that.

Observed Result:
The cursor position postion moves to the beginning of the text on which the link inserted making user to reposition it to the end of it to continue editing.

Expected Result:

This was fixed a few months ago (the cursor returns to the original position if you exit normally, or goes to the beginning of the document if you exit with escape).
