testcase

Steps to repro in the test case:
1. Put the caret somewhere in the palindrome line
2. Hold the Right arrow key pressed
3. You should see the caret looping

There is also the symmetric case using RTL textarea and LTR Override Character.

this testcase has only one special character
Comment 2 Yi Shen 2012-12-07 09:33:32 PST 
what is the expected behavior? Should the caret move to second line or just stay at the end of the first line?
