 We have found several Rosetta forums where this code (or something very
 similar) was being posted:


 {{{
 <font _mstmutation="1"></font>
 }}}

 It does not look like users are intending to add this code. As discussed
 in
 [[https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02RQC6RW/p1677139763866259|Slack]],
 it seems to be a [[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62998768/detecting-
 auto-translation-event-in-microsoft-edge|Microsoft Edge feature]] that is
 interfering with the Block Editor somehow.

 I am not sure to what extent this is for us to fix, but I wanted to open a
 ticket to document it.

 See [[https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6608|6608]] for all known
 issues and pending tasks regarding the introduction of the block editor in
 support forums.
