Fenella, can you provide a stack trace / talkback?

Is this html compose or plain text compose?

Comment 2

Probably an editor problem!

Comment 3

[Jean-Francois Ducarroz]

As th crash also occurs with composer, I reassign this bug to editor folk.

Hitting a backspace also crash on Win_nt 4.0

On Mac, I use the Delete key, it works fine.
