Bug

Provide detailed reproduction steps (if any)

https://jsfiddle.net/wag6v9bp/2/

  1. Set a placeholder on an inline editor using the editorplaceholder plugin
  2. Start with focus on some other element
  3. Click inside the editor that has the placeholder

Expected result

The placeholder text disappears, and the editor is in insertion mode.

Actual result

The placeholder text does disappear, but it takes a second click to get into insertion mode.

Other details

If the editor is large enough that it's possible to click inside of it but outside of the placeholder text, clicking beyond the placeholder text works.
