Please read bug 328834 for a full explanation. The spec linked to in that bug doesn't exist at the given URI, but there's a version of it at http://www.qsm.co.il/Hebrew/logicUI22.htm

That said, I see when experimenting with the testcase on different builds that what we are doing is not what the spec says: for example the caret doesn't move at all on the first backspace which undermines a large part of the rationale for the double backspace. ehsan, what is your opinion on the debate here and in bug 328834?
