IE6-8 selection range lost when pasting with dialog

[Jakub Ś]

I have found it when checking #8849.

To reproduce:

1. Load the "replacebyclass" sample;
2. Select first line and copy/paste it. You should have 7 lines.
3. Select the bold text "sample text" in third line from the bottom;
4. Press Tab key to move focus outside of editor;
5. Click on "Paste" toolbar button, choose to deny clipboard access in order to bring up dialog.
6. Fill in the dialog with some text "abc" then click on Ok

Result: Selection is applied to wrong text.

1. This particular issue has been reproducible from rev. [7518]

NOTE:

Before this rev. [7518], the above TC produced JS error: Message: Invalid argument.
Line: 802
URI: /ckeditor/_source/plugins/selection/plugin.js
It has been reproducible from rev. [7239] to [7382]; got fixed in [7383] and showed up again from [7447] to [7517]; got fixed in [7518] (which resulted in wrong selection described in that ticket).

#9116 is also broken by [7518]

I cannot confirm it, can we have a reduced tc for that?

[Wiktor Walc]

I can't reproduce it either. In IE6 "sample text" is replaced with "abc".

Fixed after #9116 get closed.

Result one got fixed but you have come back to result 2. Please check #9132 for more details.

NOTE: Please use CRTL+F5 or clear cache from time to time if you have problems with reproducing.

As Jakub wrote in comment:5, after following the TC from this ticket, the result is now exactly as described in #9132, so I'm leaving this ticket (#9127) closed.
