[IE] Elementspath does not display valid path for first click after selectall

[Marek Lewandowski]

since: 4.0 until major

This issue also appears in widgets content editables.

1. open any sample with CKEditor (i.e. samples/replacebyclass.html)
2. use following source:

   <p>dsadasd <a href="http://aasd">asdsd</a> dassd</p>
   

3. switch back to wysiwyg mode
4. ctrl+a (select all)
5. click once inside link text, to place caret as follows:

   dsadasd as^dsd dassd
   

Expected result:
Following elementspath: body p a

Current result:
Elementspath without a element: body p

Second case:
Steps 1-4 as in case above

5. click once text after link, to place caret as follows:

   dsadasd asdsd das^sd
   

... and now elementspath shows body p a but it should not.

additional info:

1. issue does not appear after first click
2. issue was not present in 3.6.6.1 (tested with ie10), but please, double check me here
3. present in IE9, IE10, IE11 - i didnt check ie8

I was able to reproduce this problem from CKEditor 4.0 beta in IE8-11.

To reproduce step two in my case:

1. open any sample with CKEditor (i.e. samples/replacebyclass.html)
2. use following source:

   <p>dsadasd <a href="http://aasd">asdsd</a> dassd</p>
   

3. switch back to wysiwyg mode and click at the end of text
4. ctrl+a (select all)
5. click once inside link text, to place caret as follows:

   dsadasd as^dsd dassd
   

6. First issue has occurred.
7. Press Ctrl+A
8. Click once text after link, to place caret as follows:

   dsadasd asdsd das^sd
   

To reproduce issue two, continuation after first TC is needed.

It looks to me like elements' path is one step behind collapsed selection. Try pressing Ctrl+A and clicking inside link or text and you will see.
