Intention:  To remove a stub template


Expectation:  That the stub template would disappear and everything else (references list, navbox) would remain the same


Steps to reproduce:

1)  Go to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gastric_volvulus&oldid=567517399 or (probably) any other article that contains these items on separate, adjacent lines:

 * A list of references (in this case, a single bulleted list item)
 * A blank line
 * A stub template
 * A navigation template

2)  Open the article in VisualEditor.

3)  Click on the the stub template to select it.

4)  Press the delete/backspace key (it's same key on a Mac) one time to delete the stub template (and nothing else).


Result:

Instead of getting the slightly shorter expected list:

 * A list of references (in this case, a single bulleted list item)
 * A blank line
 * A navigation template

this produced a single line containing both the reference list item and the navbox, with no intervening spaces or lines:

 * A list of references (in this case, a single bulleted list item)Navigation template

This broke the navbox formatting for readers.
