Comment:

 No intention to bring any confusion in here as it seems the bug is on its
 good way to some future release. However there is a wp-admin-only_no-
 plugin workaround, or at least it works for me.
   a. before inserting the the image to your post press the '''None'''
 button right bellow the '''Link URL''' text input area.
   a. then just press '''Insert into post''' button as you do usually
   a. now get straight back to edit the picture's properties with '''Edit
 Image''' icon again
   a. type your desired URL and just save the settings with '''Update'''
   a. finally save your post and voila! :)
 ''Note: If you prefer to avoid the Edit Image properties window loading
 and get all of it slightly quicker, you could use the common TinyURL text
 URL tool instead at the point c. and adopt the rest points accordingly.''
