Links in mj-text components are not selectable by default

I stumbled upon another odd behaviour. When I create a link inside a mj-text component using the built-in RTE I cant directly access the link after the editor loaded.

I need to double click the text, to edit the text, then select the link, select another component in the editor to change the focus and then reselect the link which is now accessible. This can’t be an expected behaviour or is it?

Here is some mjml to reproduce this:

<mjml>
  <mj-body>
    <mj-section>
      <mj-column>
        <mj-text>
          This is some text. <a href="https://example.com" title="Test" target="_blank" class="link">This is a link</a>.
        </mj-text>
      </mj-column>
    </mj-section>
  </mj-body>
</mjml>

Yes, thats the current behavior as described in the issue. But this is not expected. Set yourself in a customer perspective with hardly technical knowledge, who would find this out?

I looked at the code and did not find an explanation for this behavior, if so, I‘d have fixed this myself.

I found that you need to double click the text container then deselect the text container, afterwards the links are selectable. That’s the only way I found that allows you to select a link.
