Thank you for reporting this.

I was hoping this would be uncommon, but perhaps it's not ...

This is a bug in Codemirror v6, and I have made the author of the library aware of it, but as of right now, there does not seem to be any fix, and the issue is not being prioritized.

You can read more here: https://github.com/codemirror/dev/issues/1089 - hopefully enough attention can be brought for the author to look into it again.

I've managed to fix this with the help of @marjinh. Thank you both! This will be included in the next release.
