It's confirmed in 3.3.1. Looks like a missing feature. Would Radek have a review? Thanks!

Comment 2 Thomas Arnhold 2013-04-15 02:34:07 UTC

Not reproduced with Version 4.0.2.2 (Build ID: 4c82dcdd6efcd48b1d8bba66bfe1989deee49c3).

Comment 3 malekpatryk 2014-03-26 15:46:18 UTC

Still an issue in 4.2.2 rc1.

VERIFIED WORKSFORME as per below environment. However, while one may click the text and it opens a web browser, the color is different then before it was closed, and reopened. Different problem for a different report:
