Description
Safari doesn't always remove the selection, even if the contenteditable element no longer has focus. In this scenario, we need to forcefully remove the selection on blur https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12353247/force-contenteditable-div-to-stop-accepting-input-after-it-loses-focus-under-web
Issue
I could not find any open issues related to this specific bug. There are other issues open with regards to backwards typing bugs but they are unrelated.
Example
To replicate, I simply added a button in the toolbar that calls
ReactEditor.blur(editor)
when clicked:Safari.backwards.typing.bug.-.Before.mp4
Safari.backwards.typing.bug.-.After.mp4
