As far as I know, there is no actively maintained editing spec at the moment. 
Aryeh's document is a great start but by no means should it be considered 
complete, or the standard to which you should target an implementation... I 
think we would [currently] prefer to discuss specific issues here on the 
mailing list until a regular editor can be found-so thanks for bringing this up!

By the way, what you suggest sounds reasonable for the behavior.

Subject: [editing] nested contenteditable

Hey,
is there any progress on finding out who is to maintain this spec: 
https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/editing/raw-file/tip/editing.htm ? Is Aryeh still a 
fulltime student?

There is an effort at Chromium to make deletion of non-editable subelements 
work according to the spec, but the spec doesn't seem to anything about this.

See: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=238000


Who could we ask to get the sepcification updated with information about this?

Our current suggestion is that backspacing/deleting into it selects it, and a 
second hit on backspace/delete will remove it. The most important to me though 
is to have clarity on this.
