Your initiative is good, but IMO the easiest way to promote an issue is 
to vote for it. Right now XWIKI-3335 has no votes (and nobody watching 
it, besides me who created it).

Regarding XWIKI-3335, it's not hard to fix indeed but it can slow down 
the editing (navigating with the arrow keys precisely) because the 
editor will have to make a non trivial test each time you press the 
left/right arrow key (what's the current caret position? what's the 
previous/next _visible_ node relative to the current caret position? Is 
that node a macro container?). I can fix it but I need your vote.

Thanks,
Marius
