Special characters are encoded twice in nested editables

Description (last modified by Piotrek Koszuliński)

Using åäö and alike in the caption gets converted to ä but so does the & part so if you take a look at the source it looks lite this: ä

to reproduce this just go to http://ckeditor.com/demo#widgets and the image tool heading, change the "Apollo CMS-LM spacecraft" caption to include ä for example then take a look at the source.

TC

  1. Open image2 sample.
  2. Paste "åäö" into the caption.
  3. Switch between modes twice.
  4. In wysiwyg you get "åäö".

I believe that I wrote tests against doubled encoding. So this is not a widget's only issue - most likely it's a conflict with the entities plugin.

Pushed solution to t/11372 (+test branch).

It turned out to be much more complex than expected:

  1. The problem was that, because of applyToAll used in entities plugin to solve #11250, dataFilter rule was executed twice: for all editor contents and for nested editable. Double execution implied double replacement:
    return text.replace( baseEntitiesRegex, getChar ).replace( entitiesRegex, getEntity );
    
  1. To avoid re-writing dataFilter logic from scratch (it's a matter of time though), I introduced excludeNestedEditable option so that filtering and replacement are done only once, for nested editable only, while filtering of editor contents excludes nested editables.
  1. Surprisingly, I realized that despite of excludeNestedEditable the problem still occured. It was because filtering defined in Entities plugin was executed in between two toDataFormat listeners of different priorities (8 and 13) in Widget plugin. Those listeners, designed to downcast but to preserve data-cke-* attributes for the "target filtering", precisely the first one, downcasted nested editables, which made excludeNestedEditable unaware of the "history" of parsed element and incapable of protecting its contents.

I postponed downcasting of nested editables and put it into the second toDataFormat listener, which seems to be harmless (at least tests pass).

A rule:

addRules( {...}, { excludeNestedEditable: true } )

will be applied to all elements in:

<div><p contenteditable="true">x</p></div>

That's because isRuleApplicable makes assumption that context.nestedEditable may be true only if context.nonEditable is true. They should be independent to avoid weird situations like the one above.
