New issue 767731 by rla...@chromium.org: Can't edit contenteditable div if it only contains certain empty elements
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=767731

Chrome Version: 63.0.3222.0
OS: All

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Navigate to data:text/html, <div contenteditable><h1></h1></div>
(2) Try to edit anywhere in the document

What is the expected result?

There's nowhere in the document you can click to edit the document.

What happens instead?

It should behave the same way <h1 contenteditable></h1> behaves, or at least the way <div contenteditable></div> behaves.

Note: the inner element doesn't have to be an h1. Other elements that are p and div (and also probably all of h2 through h6).

This bug is of interest to me because if you have markup that looks like:

<div contenteditable="true"><h1>H</h1>ello</div>

and you do a "select all" on Android and try to type replacement text, the DeleteSelectionCommand that runs leaves us with an empty <h1> inside the div, which makes further editing impossible.
