Comment:

 I did some testing. This has been fixed in the new block editor, but is
 still happening in the Classic Editor.

 The problem happens anytime a period is used in the search field. Even
 when text follows the `.`, an AJAX call is not initiated. Looks to have
 been introduced in [36384] (see #33301) and the
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/js/_enqueues/vendor/tinymce/plugins/wplink/plugin.js#L412
 line causing this is here].

 Since this only affects the Classic Editor, I'm marking as low priority.
 But I don't think it would hurt to fix this bug if someone wants to own
 it.
