Test 1
======
- new composer window
- input
    a enter enter (insert horizontal line) b enter
- hit cursor-up three times
- you are now positioned on the empty line between a and the line
- hit DEL

Expected behaviour:
  The empty line should get removed

Actual behaviour:
  The horizontal line is removed


Test 2
======
- new composer window
- input
    a enter enter (insert horizontal line) b enter

(that is the same as in test 1)

- hit cursor up four times (once more than in test 1)
- hit cursor down once
- you are now positioned on the empty line between a and the line
- hit DEL

Expected behaviour:
  The empty line should get removed

Actual behaviour:
  Nothing happens!
  Even if you hit DEL multiple times, nothing happens

I just retested the first part. Looks even worse now, DEL key doesn't do anything.

Tested using:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030423
Netscape/7.02+

Test 1:
when I entered the text, this is the code:
<body background="">a<br>
<br>
<hr width="100%" size="2">b<br>
<br>
</body></html>

After I hit delete, this is the code:
<body background="">a<br>
<br>
<hr width="100%" size="2">b<br>
<br>
</body></html>

-----------------------------
Test 2:
the result after hitting delete:
<body background="">a<br>
<br>
<hr width="100%" size="2">b<br>
<br>
</body></html>

Based on the above, this is not fixed
