Comment:

 This has been around since image captions were introduced back in 2.7. The
 problem is that to place the caret in contentEditable mode the browsers
 need a block level element with some sort of content in it. FF has <br
 data-mce-bogus="1">, WebKit has U+00A0 (UTF for non-breaking space), etc.
 So for placing the caret we would need to insert something like <p><br
 data-mce-bogus="1"></p> or <p>u\00a0</p> after the caption which brings
 other problems when another caption is not inserted in the editor straight
 away.

 The current behavior is a compromise. On the other hand we probably can
 re-examine the process of inserting a shortcode in TinyMCE and converting
 it to a bunch of DOM elements as the browsers have evolved a bit in that
 area since the last time.
