Not sure when will this code path get called...?

[yosin_UTC9, 2016/04/13 06:13:09]

Backspace emulation? Or, Thai keyboard?
I remember that do-while loop introduced for deleting character in complex
script.

Actually it will always go into here by pressing backspace on Android's soft
keyboard (outside composition), so I think the event should be 'deleteContent'.

     TypingCommand::deleteSelection(*frame().document());
