After hitting enter in a TEXTAREA, the <Down arrow> key swaps the caret between
the last 2 lines in the textarea.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a page with a TEXTAREA, e.g.
http://www.mozilla.org/quality/help/bugzilla-helper.html (or just use the
"Additional Comments" area in this bug)
2. Position the caret in a TEXTAREA
3. Hit <Enter> or <Return>
4. Hit <Down arrow> a few times. See?!
5. Hit <Up arrow> a few times, then go back down again with <Down arrow>.
Problem still occurs!

Actual Results:  Caret cycles between the ends of the last two lines in the textarea

Expected Results:  Caret should stay at the end of the textarea

To core editor.  This is a duplicate.

There are so many related bugs, all saying about the same...
Probably bug 113260 or bug 102220. Bug 98404 is somewhat related. Someone must
fix them all with a shot.

This needs to be confirmed so people notice it.  THis is real, and very
annoying.  THere area  BUNCH of cursor-movement bugs in editor that desparately
need fixing.  (also cursor-positioning on mouse-clicks).
