Hi,
As Eric says you can overcome the issue locally by hand but that is not a
real solution.
By adding a meta tag to GeoServerBasePage stating that IE11 should render
with the security laws of IE10 we overcome this issue.

This also seem to solve the other issues described in
https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-6426
I've created a pull request at
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/789

It's my first so go easy on me :)
