The BBEdit tag editor is designed to let you edit tag _attributes_ not
tag _contents_.
The problem with editing _contents_ through the tag editor is that the
contents of an tag can include _almost any HTML element_, not just
text.
So how could the tag editor handle this? It’d have to have a

It's possible that there are other whitespace characters before and after

Find: `[\r ](\d+)\r`
