Description James Forrester 2012-11-24 00:54:57 UTC

Start with an article with an inline alien - e.g. "ABC<tt>:-)</tt>DEF". Place cursor "up page" (in LTR, left) of inline alien; selection with keyboard down-page works as expected. Now place the cursor "down page" (in LTR, right) of the inline alien; selection with keyboard up-page fails when reaching the alien, clearing the selection and placing the cursor immediately up-page of the alien.

Note that in RTL this appears to work fine(!).

Confirmed in both Chrome and Firefox.

This was resolved in Iba55cfc3d531e7d1333b78c94912ff22179aace8

The issue was that the cursor "fix-up" code was not preserving non-zero-length selections.
