Opening Symbolic Links

I have a text file, called Text. I did in Terminal: ln -s Text SymlinkToText

When I try to open SymlinkToText in TextEdit "SymlinkToText" is shown in the Open Panel, but when I select it, the "Open"-button is disabled.

Is this a bug or a feature (in 10.5.6) ?
I believe this did work in Tiger, but have no machine to test this.

Kind regards,

Gerriet.
