Try typing non-ASCII characters in the VisualEditor edit summary field. For
example, just type the Russian letter ж continuously. Towards the end it won't
stop at 0, but at -1. Example screenshot from the Hebrew Wikipedia:

This should be handled in a cleaner way. Either disallow typing anything that
would go beyond zero, or allow all text to go beyond zero, as in Twitter or
MoodBar.
