Different <br> behaviour for divs with contenteditable="true" and contenteditable="plaintext-only"

Project Member Reported by n...@chromium.org, Aug 3 2016 
Version: M51, M54
OS: Mac

There's an old trick to get a single-line <div contenteditable> by hiding the generated <br>s: http://jsbin.com/sukelu/edit?html,output.

This does not work if contenteditable="plaintext-only" (but works if contenteditable="true"). On Safari, it works in both cases

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Type multiline text in both textboxes.

What is the expected output?
Both textboxes should be single-line.

What do you see instead?
The div with contenteditable="plaintext-only" is multiline.

Since "plaintext-only" value is Blink/WebKit specific value, I don't recommend to use it.

Should we make "plaintext-only" as standard value?

To implement INPUT and TEXTAREA with "contenteditable", we need to disable formatting shortcut keys, Ctrl+B, Ctrl+I, Ctrl+U, ..., context menu in mobile Safari, pasting, etc.

# "plaintext-only"
<div contenteditable="plaintext-only"><div>foo</div></div>

# "true"
<div contenteditable>"foo"<div>br</div></div>
