A question: after the paste and the resulting incorrect cursor position, if you type 2 or 3 characters from the keyboard (without changing the cursor position), do those characters get inserted correctly (and without corrupting the existing content)?

I found from #494 that an incorrect cursor position is a warning sign that editor is in an incorrect state.
And that if characters are inserted during this state, then the editor will corrupt the existing content.

I tried to reproduce your bug in Windows and Android, but I did not see the buggy behavior so I can't test it on my platforms.

Tried to reproduce the issue with a very minimalistic html as follows

<!DOCTYPE html>
    <head>
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="./dist/trix.css">
        <script type="text/javascript" src="./dist/trix.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <trix-editor></trix-editor>
    </body>
</html>

The above html was placed in root level of trix source code after cloning the repo.

Issue doesnt seem to occur, but the same issue occurs in trix website.

Does the website run the same scripts as present in the dist folder?
