Hey Gregor,

is the copy/paste functionality part of the System FE team?
Here it looks like contenteditable elements are not considered.

Ni George and Morris for copy paste issue.

Since contenteditable element will insert <br> at the end, not sure if select all will also select the element and removed unexpectedly.

I think it relates to gecko. We should have caret in empty column and tap it to launch the bubble.
