Research direction
Reproduce the reported sequence in the Web and React components: create a cell, paste and edit content, then change its language from Markdown to code. Trace the cell editing and type-change flow to find where the edited content is discarded. Done means the edited contents remain after changing the cell language, with the reproduction no longer showing data loss.
