It still shows only one inspector when I put cursor at the very beginning or at the very end. Shouldn't it behave the same way for those positions?

I think this is the correct behavior. The link context should only display if we're displaying the active link styling (the light blue background and border). You might need to use keyboard arrow keys to navigate "inside" the link in such cases.

This is deployed everywhere already (since the train this morning).
