Can't delete empty line between visual shortcodes.

[andyspw]

I can't delete empty line in TinyMCE between visual shortcodes in WP 4.6 RC1. I think, this behavior isn't correct.

To reproduce:

• create two galleries
• add an empty line between them
• put a cursor to this line
• click "Delete" button

Instead of an empty line, the second gallery will be deleted.

Hi @andyspw, thanks for the bug report. I can reproduce it.

This is a bug "upstream" in the TinyMCE editor. I've reported it to the developers there. For now the workaround is to drag the bottom gallery to that empty paragraph. It will be fixed in WordPress after it is fixed in TinyMCE and we upgrade to that version.

@azaozz Is ​https://github.com/tinymce/tinymce/commit/68d6c78ff14c038d40c791b7940d87e731d90fc3 the fix for this?

Replying to ocean90:

Yes, however I'm hesitant updating TinyMCE to the latest dev. build or backporting this fix few days before the 4.6 release. This is somewhat annoying but is an edge case that has workarounds.

I've opened #38081 to update TinyMCE which should resolve this issue.

Per #38081 ticket, @azaozz mentions that we can go ahead and update to the latest version of TinyMCE, but will need to do it again before beta once there is another update.
