Hello, gave one more try during a live edit correction, result no success.

*On mr wikipedia page was https://mr.wikipedia.org/wiki/नारायण_श्रीपाद_राजहंस

*During the last edit diff https://mr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=नारायण_श्रीपाद_राजहंस&diff=1198688&oldid=1184350 one new user has removed section heading to word जीवन

*I took corrective editing target to type Marathi word व्यक्तीगत (by using VE+ULS method ) before word जीवन so it will be a two word section heading ==व्यक्तीगत जीवन==

  • Sentence to be edited जीवन नारायण श्रीपाद राजहंस यांचा जन्म जून २६, इ.स. १८८८ रोजी जिल्ह्यातील पलुस तालुक्यात नागठाणे या गावी झाला.

Steps tried

*Visit Marathi language wikipedia
*Enable visual editor from preferences [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing]]

  • Clicked संपादन that is edit (Visual Editor's)
  • Sentence appeared जीवन ↵नारायण श्रीपाद राजहंस यांचा जन्म जून २६, इ.स. १८८८ रोजी जिल्ह्यातील पलुस तालुक्यात नागठाणे या गावी झाला.
  • Display language Marathi For Input method selected ULS> 1)अक्षरांतरण (transliteration)

*Clicked Enter after word जीवन since rest of line needs to be in paragraph portion

*Took cursor before word जीवन

  • To transliterate Typed keys from key board 'vyaktigata >> अक्षरांतरण transliteration transliterated to>> व्यक्तिगत transliteration was success.
  • Then 'Pressed space bar' the result was word 'व्यक्तिगत' disappeared.
  • Repeated above with different ULS input method ULS> 2) इनस्क्रिप्ट (Inscript)
  • To transliterate typed keys bd/kdlfil transliterated to>> व्यक्तिगत transliteration was success.
  • Then 'Pressed space bar' the result was word 'व्यक्तिगत' disappeared.

Windows 7 + tried two browsers Firefox (version mentioned earlier) and Google Chrome (is up to date Version 29.0.1547.66 m) The results were failure.

(VE+windows native Input method इनस्क्रिप्ट 'in script' worked successfully to type word व्यक्तिगत + space bar was success.)

We still wait and look forward to VE +ULS success. Best wishes for the same

Confirming this is not fixed.

System environment:
Win 7 X64 SP1
Google Chrome 29.0.1547.66 m

Test URL:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Siddhartha_Ghai?veaction=edit

Steps to reproduce:
Enable ULS IME mr transliteration (labelled अक्षरांतरण)
Blank the page (and reset formatting to simple paragraph, i.e remove bulleted list formatting)

Input 1:
agar[SPACE]

Output 1:
[SPACE]

Expected Output (as seen in the old editor):
अगर्[SPACE]

Input 2:
kyaa[SPACE]

Output 2:
[SPACE]

Expected Output (as seen in the old editor):
क्या[SPACE]

Not just Marathi/Devanagari specific, apparently it's a general problem with jquery.IME in VE.
