Steps to reproduce:

1. Paste the following into the address bar:
data:text/html,<html><div contenteditable="true" style="height:300px; width:200px; border: solid black 1px; position:absolute; left:20px">testing<ol><li>test1</li><li>test2</li><li>test3</li><li>test4</li></ol>testing</div></html>

2. Double click the first list item and select it together with the second list item.

3. Press enter.

4. Type some characters.


Actual results:

After step 3, the cursor appears to be indented. Step 4 has no effect at all. Moving the cursor out and back to the same position and typing again still has no effect.

See attached screen shot showing position of the cursor.


Expected results:

The behavior should be the same as selecting an entire list item and pressing Enter, where the list escapes, and the cursor exits the list.

Blink and Edge becomes <div contenteditable><div>....</div><ol>...</ol></div>
Gecko is <div contenteditable><ol><br>...</ol></div>

Hmm, Gecko is strange.

Simplified test

ER: characters appear (chrome)

Should it be separated in another issue?
