--- Comment #6 from Siddhartha Ghai <[email protected]> ---
Further testing Comment 3 seems to indicate that the newline selection happens
when the last input is a consonant followed by a halant which can be input with
one keystroke.

The hindi transliteration IME inputs two characters whenever an ASCII consonant
is input, the equivalent hindi consonant followed by the halant character ्
(U+094D)

So inputting g gives ग् i.e ग + ् , j gives ज् i.e ज + ् etc. with the newline
selected.

Some hindi consonants, however, need two keystrokes to be input. So gh gives घ्
i.e घ + ् and jh gives झ् i.e झ + ् etc. Output for these depends on the input
speed. If one is quick, the text is input correctly with no selection. However,
if one is slow, Bug 54421 shows up with the grapheme containing the duplicated
text at the beginning of the article being selected.

This selection (or non-selection) behaviour takes place regardless of whether
the input is one consonant or a word. The behaviour depends on what the last
consonant is, one that can be input with one keystroke or one that is input
with two keystrokes.
