I believe I have tracked this down to being a conflict with the ability to select multiple blocks at the same time. Commenting out
this.clearSelection(this.Canvas.getWindow());
on line 539 in /src/editor/model/Editor.ts seems to prevent the selected text from clearing.
I'm now looking for a way to permanently fix this.
