Description Matt Lilek 2007-01-07 12:19:18 PST 
When a contenteditable element thats set to display: inline is emptied, it will return a new line as its innerText/innerHTML.  This is the same as a block element, except when content is placed in it, the block element's new line is removed but the inline element keeps the new line appended onto the end with no way to remove it.

This is still an issue with current nightlies.

This is still an issue with Safari, Chrome, and Firefox in 2022. Is this actually a bug? Or is this correct behavior?
