@talldan I remember you and I discussing this on Github but I can't find the reference now. Apologies. Tagging you in here as I think you would be interested to review as you previously expressed an opinion that the current system isn't working optimally. I've tried to implement this in a way which is as flexible as possible, trading some absolute accuracy for an improved UX. |

I know we need to update the tests here... |

Actually I'm wrong. This is handled by the format library and is not due to the internals of link control. |

I suppose there's not a library we can use for this? |

I think it's a fairly niche heuristic. We may need to modify it as we go and receive feedback. |

What?
Improves the matching for URLs vs Entity Searches when typing in the Link Control search box.
Also removes the direct entry "suggestion" when an entity is returned.
Part of #50178
Why?
It's required by #50178 to simplify the process of:
How?
Updates the
isURLLikemethod by removing the very "open"isURLcheck which allowed pretty much anything to be technically valid. That's correct but in our case we want to limit the "URL" suggestion prompt to be only when it's prettry obviously a domain. So this result should now only show if:#somethingwww.wordpress.org).That's likely to exclude some edge cases that are technically valid URLs. However the approach previously which tried to account for any possible URL made the UX poorer by saying "this is a URL" even when it probably wasn't (e.g.
heelloiamnotaurl).This trades accuracy for an improved UX.
Note that I used ChatGPT to help me scaffold out the regex for the TLD helper.
