Link tries to construct the URL when the link is disabled

This piece of code (Link.onComponentTag) tries to construct the URL for a Link, even when it is disabled:
CharSequence url = getURL();
url = appendAnchor(tag, url);
if (!isLinkEnabled())
disableLink(tag);
else

getURL fails for us, because we did not expect it to be called for a disabled link. The constructed url is never used. Can the getURL and appendAnchor be moved inside the else?
