Link Removal with NEW RCE

(2)

It would be nice to have link removal as an option in the Link Options pop-up (see image below).   

Once the Link is deleted, the option to "Save" or mark as "Done" is unavailable.

To provide more details on this Link Removal Feature Request:

The New RCE removes the Link Removal Button and reduces Link Removal features such as the option to remove the link via the Insert Link (Ctrl+k) feature. 

As pictured above, though the new RCE does maintain the Insert Link feature, the ability to remove the link and save is no longer an option(the Done button is grayed).

Though you can still remove the link with the pop-up Remove Link from the menu, this is a specific of the feature that was available and is no longer with the update.

(You can delete the link and select the "Ok" button, thus having the ability to remove the link an additional way.)

Removing links is most easily done using the "Remove Link" option when selecting a link, as seen in the screenshot below. It's possible this was a bug at the time this feature idea was created but this idea was never updated. Sorry about that!
