Bug Description
Ubuntu 14.04
Firefox 34
English characters have no problem but when I want to delete a Persian/Arabic character I have to press backspace twice to delete only one character.
This bug occurs in text areas where a user can insert text, for instance search bar.

Steps to reproduce:
Go to any input field in the browser (URL bar, search bar, or any input field on a web page) and type in a mixed English/Hebrew text, or paste the following example:
abcdefgאבגדהוזח hijkl
Set the cursor on or around the Hebrew text and try to delete characters using backspace.
Actual results:
It takes two backspace strokes to delete a single character.
Expected results:
Naturally, a single stroke should delete a single character.
