When there is no bogus node (<br>), caret doesn't set valid position well since contenteditable doesn't have correct height yet (bug 1098151).  It isn't related to vertical text.

Thank you for the clarification.

Users can just see the issue presenting in vertical-rl mode, so personally I think it might still be appropriate to considered "related" to writing-mode, because people who CC'ed writing-mode might be also interested, though it may be unrelated to writing-mode in code level.

This initial misplacement of caret in documents with root element with 'writing-mode: sideways-lr' also happens. I have a test demonstrating this ... but right now I can not upload it to my website. I will upload it as soon as my webhosting company fixes its problem.
