Comment (by azaozz):

 This "special" mode in IE is quite hard to prevent. Happens also for
 images with captions, but since the caption text can be edited from the
 modal, it's not a big problem there. Was looking for ways to prevent it,
 unfortunately IE enforces it and none of the (old) tricks like canceling
 oncontrolselect and unselectable="on" seem to work.

 The one thing we can do it set `p { width: auto !important; }` in the
 editor stilesheet but that may bring other incompatibilities with editor-
 style.css.
