Failed to set the 'outerHTML' property on 'Element': This element has no parent node.

We're seeing reports of runtime errors when running FE.Bootstrap.underline on user devices, throwing "Failed to set the 'outerHTML' property on 'Element': This element has no parent node.". We haven't been able to reproduce the error ourselves, but the call stack appears to be:

I have the same problem when I'm trying to save the selection in blur event and then resotre the selection and insert HTML into editor. I use this method to save the state: editor.selection.save(); and then editor.selection.restore(); to restore the state.

When I save a state inside onModelChange method issue not appears and I'm able to insert a value into editor using editor.html.insert(value); But after calling editor.selection.save(); inside onModelChange I'm no longer able to save the current editor content in a parent component because the Froala onModelChange is no more triggered.

I`m using React.

Editor version. 3.2.1-1

OS. Windows

Browser. Chrome v90.0.4430.85
