#905 closed defect (fixed)

Link helper duplicates text and removes spaces/characters before and after

Description

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to editor, type some text.
  2. In the middle of a sentence, select a word or two and create a link.
  3. Title is prepopulated (good!), enter an URL, press Save.
  4. See havoc.

Looks like it removes spaces before and after, but sometimes words too. Seems to happen if the word before had a punctuation separator (eg comma). The text to be linked is inside the anchor like it should be, but after the link the same text is duplicated.

Note: none of this happens if a link is created where there was no text before, so it must be related to the recent changes for the format toolbar.

(In [2162]) Partially reverting http://ios.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/2076 .. The range.location recalculation seems to be the cause of the disappearing characters, when removed all seems to be fine. Fixes #905.
