This is not reproducible in a simple hello-world PyQt app, so it seems to be something specific about our editing environment or app that is triggering this. More experimentation is required.

Working hello-world:

Injecting <div style="border: 1px solid black;" contenteditable=true>type here</div> into the deckbrowser HTML also triggers the issue, so it doesn't seem to be connected to our sveltekit/editor environment.
