On Thunderbird, we still have a bug to delete <html> and <body> elements
(bug 1727201). However, it's hard to know where deletes the unexpected elements
from warning messages in the log. Additionally, it's really serious bug
because editor and layout code rely on the basic structure of HTML document.
Therefore, we should block the worst scenario before deleting such nodes.

Hmm, I think that it's not enough to return from the DeleteNodeTransaction users. I'll post a patch soon.

Keywords: leave-open

I just missed some callers of it. And I also make
EditorBase::DeleteNodeTransaction() a virtual method and HTMLEditor override
it. Then, even if it's called by helper classes, the HTMLEditor version is
always called.
