Thanks for the reply. Actually I'm a laptop user, so I can both tap (on the touchpad) and click (on the “mouse” buttons below the touchpad). So that workaround works. A keyboard-only workaround is, of course, to just add the corresponding MarkDown manually.

True, and what I do normally anyway (just type the Markdown links) -- for me that's faster than going through a GUI, because I'm almost always inserting the links as I compose. But if somebody is using keyboard shortcuts to navigate the GUI, and that works in general but not in this specific case, that's something I'd want to know so we could address it.

Actually up to now I wasn't even aware of the existence of keyboard shortcuts. I found the option to enable them in the preferences, but I can't find any description of what shortcuts are available.

Oh whoops -- I thought we had a help topic about that, but I guess not. @celtschk see https://meta.codidact.com/questions/276697.

Ah, thanks. There seem to be no shortcuts related to editing, though, therefore they also cannot fail in that case. But I noticed one unrelated problem: With "go to category" (g c), only the category list seems to work (g c c), not the individual categories (like g c 1).

Oh right; there's a separate feature request about keyboard shortcuts for editing, not yet implemented. Sorry for my confusion. Could you file a bug report on any meta about the category issue @celtschk? Thanks.
