 If I have the text

 test at example.com

 and select it,then click the link button, the field is filled in with

 mailto:test at example.com

 but if I highlight "mail me" and click the link, then enter
 test at example.com, it's converted to http://test@example.com


 It seems to me that the link already knows how to recognize an email
 address, but that's not applied when the email address is typed in.
