Comment (by valendesigns):

 I've been testing this bug trying to figure out a way to fix text in a
 `<td>` node that is not wrapped in another node, but the major hurdle is
 that it has extremely inconsistent behavior. There are a bunch of ways to
 get it to work and break, which makes it very hard to fix and test.

 For example, if you don't select all the text you have a better chance of
 making it work, unless you select the first word which will break on the
 first insert but work on a second and continue working on other text in
 the table. It's very strange that it works so intermittently and is
 usually only the first or second attempt that breaks depending on where
 your cursor begins and ends.

 @azaozz Do you have any speculations on how this might be fixed?
