I /think/ the editor replied that that problem didn't occur again since, and that he doesn't want to test further. If you want you can play with my sandbox at https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedysta:Elitre_(WMF)/sandbox or just close this provisionally. Thanks.

I played around a bit with Chrome, Firefox and Opera and couldn't reproduce. Closing as WORKSFORME, but that feels bad…
