Steps to reproduce: 1. Open http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMIS 2. Press Edit 3. Press your keyboard's Down key 4. Wild pawn ♙ appears Also reproduced on http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%95%E3%83%AB%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AB%E3%83%BB%E3%83%89%E3%83%BB%E3%82%BB%E3%83%AB
If you keep the Down key pressed, the caret will travel down, dumping a pawn at the end of some paragraphs. I am not sure how pawn leaving is decided: For the same paragraph of the same article, sometimes a pawn is dumped and sometimes not.
Reproduced on Firefox 20 on OS X 10.8. Following error reported in console when pressing down key.

I took the liberty of marking it as FireFox only.
Confirmed, will work on it.
