This PR addresses a bug that can be reproduced as follows:
-> the selection is ejected from the code block.
The issue was due to
preserveTextareaSelections: its condition to restore the focus within a textarea was never met. As a result, when the active selection was changed during normalization, the focus was lost.Fixing this revealed a double issue with the
undoandredofunctions:body.focus()doesn't do anything, we need to doeditable.focus().While fixing the issue, an unrelated problem was noticed and also addressed here: invisible whitespace that would become visible in a
<pre>element should be removed before turning a block into a<pre>.task-5262154
