VisualEditor: Cursor appears misplaced after adding item to list
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Steps:

  1. Open http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor:Test
  2. Click at the end of any list item
  3. Press Enter
  4. As expected, a new line is created in the list
  5. PROBLEM: This cursor blinks at the beginning of the previous line (the one in which the cursor was before pressing Enter
  6. When I begin typing, the text appears in the new line, so I guess the "real cursor" is actually at the right place, but its visualisation is misplaced.

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

About step 5:
Also, it only blinks once.
In some cases it does not blink at all (invisible), but that is a different problem.

Assigning to Christian given his heroic work on this last night.

I think I know what's the issue, please keep assigned to me.

I (original reporter) confirm the fix.
