Open a reasonably large file (> 30 K)\r\n2. Scroll to the very bottom\r\n3. Quickly scroll to the middle of the file\r\n4. Position the cursor at the end of a line\r\n5. Try to backspace twice\r\n\r\nThe first backspace works, but then it stops working. I'm still able to insert text, and I can even delete the text if I make a visual selection and *then* press backspace. But after deleting it, I still can't backspace over the point where the text was."}}
