User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:11.0a1) Gecko/20111111 Firefox/11.0a1
Build ID: 20111111031514

Steps to reproduce:

Create HTML document with an entity immediately followed by a visible character.


Actual results:

Visible character placed immediately after entity is highlighted as part of the entity (red color) though it is not.

For example, in this case:
the ipsum

'i' letter will be highlighted with same red color as   entity before the letter.


Expected results:

Character after an entity should not be highlighted as part of entity located before the character.

Maybe related to bug 535530. Not a dupe since bug 535530 was reported in 2009-12-17 when HTML5 parser has not yet been used for View Source.
Introduced in '2011-11-02-03-10-56-mozilla-central' build.
Bug 535530 is still the reason why this happens.
