What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Go to http://html5demos.com/contenteditable 2. Select ContentEditable element in the page 3. Start typing one letter at the time What is the expected output? Focused node does not change. What do you see instead? Focus keeps switching between highlighting the ContentEditable and deselecting it.

This doesn't happen with most contenteditable areas, so adding NeedsReduction keyword. > See video: https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/file/d/0B-AevY72N_3qeE9uNWZGYUVGTGM/edit?usp=sharing That's Google internal.

The contentEditable area appears to function with no issues, but on occasion, the border "blinks" momentarily blue (Safari's default "active" highlight for text fields and such). I tried to capture this in a gif, but it appears to blink too fast for the 16fps.

While the "Blinking Border" as described above still exists, this appears to work correctly now. (r180732)
