[Mac] Japanese IME - Control character gets inserted through certain steps

Reported by aiq8996...@gmail.com, Nov 16

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.102 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to https://www.soscisurvey.de/tools/view-chars.php and clear the input box.
2. Turn on the Hiraga mode of Mac's default Japanese IME (Kotoeri).
3. Type the following keys in the written order (do nothing else in-between).
A
Space
Tab
Delete
A
Delete
Delete
4. Click the 'Show me the characters' button.

What is the expected behavior?
It should show no characters.

What went wrong?
It says 08 (0x08 - Control character for 'backspace') is written in the box.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 70.0.3538.102  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.14.1
Flash Version: 

When this character gets inserted in a search string, the search result gets garbaged. For non-power users it'll be too confusing to figure out what's going on.

Thanks for filing the issue!

Tried checking the issue on reported chrome version 70.0.3538.102 using Mac 10.14.1 with the below mentioned steps.
1. Launched Chrome
2. Navigated to https://www.soscisurvey.de/tools/view-chars.php
3. Cleared the input field.
4. Turned on Hiragana mode on Mac
5. Typed as per point no.3 in C#0
6. Clicked on 'Show me the characters' button.
It didn't show any characters. Attaching the screencast of the same for reference.

@Reporter: Could you please check the screencast and let us know if we have missed anything in the process. Any further inputs from your end may be helpful.

Hi, thank you for checking the issue!

I can see that you clicked to choose あ from the input suggestion list.
Please note that clicking is not in the replication steps.

When I press the A key on my keyboard, it automatically shows あ.
You don't have to hold down Shift when you press A to make Chrome type the letter 'A', if that's what you did.
I'm sorry, it would have been more accurate if I had written 'Press' instead of 'Type' in the Step #3.
So Step #3 is PRESS the next keys in the following order.
A
Space
Tab
Delete
A
Delete
Delete


Also, here are my setting values if it's necessary to enable/disable certain options to replicate the issue.

Input modes:
Hiragana: Enabled
Full-width Romaji: Disabled
Katakata: Disabled
Half-width Katakana: Enabled
Romaji: Enabled

Caps Lock action: Caps Lock
Shift key action: Enter Romaji mode
Typing method: Romaji
Live Conversion: Disabled
Correct spelling: Disabled
Windows-live shortcuts: Disabled

Candidate window: 
Font: Hiragino Mincho ProN W6
Font size: 16
Predictive candidates: Enabled
Convert with punctuation: Disabled

Romaji layout: U.S
Punctuation: 。and 、
"/" key generates: ・ (Middle dot)
"¥" key generates: ¥(Yen sign)
Full-width numeral characters: Enabled

Speciality dictionaries: No entry

Hope it helps.

Hi, I just figured out that the issue was reproducible with Google Japanese IME and ATOK 2017 as well.
 
I also found a reduced replication steps.
The steps work for all the IMEs mentioned so far.

Steps:

1. Go to https://www.soscisurvey.de/tools/view-chars.php and clear the input box.
2. Turn on the Hiragana mode of a Japanese IME.
3. Press the following keys in the written order (Do nothing else in-between).

Space
A
Delete
Delete
Space
A
Delete
Delete

4. Click the 'Show me the characters' button.

Expected
No character should be in the text box.

Actual
It says U+3000 and 08 are in the text box.

As per comment #7, Able to reproduce the issue on reported chrome version 70.0.3538.102 also on latest chrome 72.0.3616.0 using Mac 10.14.0.  
 
Same behavior is seen on M60(60.0.3112.113) hence considering it as non-regression and marking it as Untriaged.

Thanks!
