Long press backspace sometimes would continue to delete backwards even after the key is released #44

The app is wonderful and don't have any complaint except for this bug, which 
seemed to appear since a version in 2012.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Long press backspace to delete some (relatively long) text
2. Release the backspace when the targeted text are deleted

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What I expected is that the deletion stops immediately after the backspace key 
is released. Instead I see that SOMETIMES the deletion simply continues unless, 
say, I hit the backspace key again, something I figured out that I could do to 
prevent losing all the text if I act fast.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

This issue seemed to appear since a version in 2012 on android and occurs to 
the current version on android as of 09/20/2013. It appeared on both my Archos 
80 G9 tablet (android 4.0.4) and the 2013 Nexus 7 2nd generation (android 4.3). 
Since it appeared on different devices and on different versions of android and 
I don't see this problem with some other editors on android, I assume that it 
is a bug in jota rather than the underlying android.

Please provide any additional information below.
