Could you provide step-by-step guide, because I can't understand what exactly you wish to achieve.

What I'm doing is:

1. Open latest release sample.
2. Clicking bold button.
3. Clicking at instance word (to make a click on editor body).

I'm expecting bold button to be unselected, and content to remain unaffected - and that's how it works on both FF and IE11.

I am using FF version: 53.0.2 (32-bit)
I am providing the steps for firefox:

1. Open latest release sample.
2. Remove all text from editor.
3. Click on bold style.
4. click on editor body
5. start typing
6. Bold will unselect automatically and text will appear as normal style.

Repeat 1-6 steps on Chrome, behavior will be different, bold will not unselect automatically and text will appear as bold text.
