After removing an element within a contenteditable element, there is a magic broken location for the caret at the point where the element used to be. At this location, pressing the left arrow key will move the caret one character away from the end of the next element.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open test case in Firefox
2. Caret should be located immediately before the bold "two"
3. Press the left arrow key
Actual Results:  
Caret is between w and o of "two"

Expected Results:  
Caret is immediately to the right of "One"
