>    Affects Versions: 3.3.1.SP3
>         Environment: Windows7/XP

> MS IME(Japanese)

> You can reproduce it with http://livedemo.exadel.com/richfaces-demo/richfaces/editor.jsf
> I just reproduced with Japanese IME, not sure how other languages work.
> - Toggle MS IME on
> - Enter "ほんぶん"
> - Press SPACE key to change it to "本文"
> -- Then the caret moves to the line head. Weird.
> - Enter "です"
> - "本文" disappears and only "です" remains.
> The issue is reproducible only when you write something for the first time to the empty text area. After that, the issue wouldn't happen.
> I'm not sure the details of how TinyMCE handles IME keyDown events but the root cause seems to me that TinyMCE doesn't generate <p> tag in the empty text area for IE8 while it does for FireFox and Chrome.
> A workaround is populating "<p/>" as the initial value for the rich:editor.
> Example)
> xhtml:
> {code}
> <rich:editor id="editor" width="400" height="300" viewMode="visual" value="#{editorBean.value}" ></rich:editor>
> {code}
> EditorBean:
> {code}
> private String value = "<p/>";
> {code}
> This is reproducible with pure TinyMCE 3.2 and the latest 3.4.6 still have a similar issue (The Behaviour is a bit different but <p> is not generated for IE8 yet).
