While I have seen this bug before, I can not reproduce it any more with the current state of the codebase. Is this on a specific browser? Can you verify if your codebase is up to date?

The screenshot is from beta dewiki so it must be either content, workflow nuance, preferences, or browser.

It is really hard to reproduce. I played around with that again and I can not find a pattern. Somtimes it does not happen at all, sometimes hitting the delete button twice causes the problem. I am using Firefox, and could not reproduce in Chrome. So maybe it is a problem with my browser configuration.

While things like this can still potentially occur, I believe it to be much less common in CodeMirror 6. Thus I'm moving this to the CM5 column for now. Please let me know if anyone observes this problem in CM6.

Though it hasn't been confirmed by anyone here, I am assuming this issue was exclusive to CodeMirror 5, which has now officially been retired. Please file re-open or file new bug should the issue persist with the new version.
