Description

Steps to reproduce

This might be an issue with ckeditor, not sure.

  1. Open Mail in Firefox mobile
  2. Start typing
  3. Enter a whitespace
  4. Enter two more characters
  5. The editor duplicates the first typed character after the whitespace at the end of the line after the cursor.

Typing "Hello Ch" gives this:
