I'm still getting the delete effect in Internet Explorer 11. Interestingly if you click the edit button it shows "Type the text for this Tiddler" at the beginning before all the text already in the tiddler and the preview window initially shows a preview and then clears. I think it has something to do with the new setText function in framed.js. It wasn't doing that before it was merged from http://rich-text-editor.tiddlyspot.com/. It used to be called the getEditInfo function and had a lot more to the function. Now Internet Explorer hits it first and passes a value of null via text where as the other browsers don't even seem to initially hit that function at all, maybe because of focus. It is checking if it has focus and then it does this.domNode.value = text; which deletes the text because at this point text has nothing in it. Strange how it only does this in IE 11 and not Chrome or Edge. Please forgive me Jeremy if I am completely wrong.
