This is fixed in production in that it doesn't introduce the excess quotes any more, see https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=VisualEditor%3ABug39058&diff=571888&oldid=571887 . It still adds <span> tags though, but that's fixed on master.
On my localhost, the diff I get is as follows, and I think that's perfectly reasonable:
− '''This is a te<nowiki>''</nowiki>st page for bug 35058.'''
+ '''This is a ''te<nowiki>''</nowiki>st'' page for bug 35058.'''
