It seems the model is consistently one character behind. When I worked-round the bug in comment #0 by backspacing over my new character and typing it again, and then changing another word on the page, clicking Save page and reviewing my change showed only the first word change in the wikitext diff.

Could this be fixed by https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/164514 ?

This works fine if the first cursor position is in the Header, or before the first character of the paragraph. Very complex behaviour…

Works for me in latest Chrome

Only happens on first click.

This appears to now be fixed in wmf3.
