When typing, looks like the RLE character is treated as insignificant character and removed.

Inside InsertTextCommand::input(), there is the following line:

deleteInsignificantText(startPosition.upstream(), startPosition.downstream());

When RLE is the previously entered character, startPosition.upstream() will return the position before RLE while downstream() returns the position after RLE, and what is in between (the RLE character) is removed inside the function,
no matter whether RLE is the first character in the element or not.
