Well, when I first encountered it, what I thought I saw was if I scrolled down the sections would get highlighted without me actually doing any highlighting, and sometimes the boxes were gone. Obviously I could only come that observation if I saw the sections, but the first time it happened to me I didn't actually scroll down, I only knew it has occured becuase when I checked the editor history there was this big red number indicating I had inadvertenly deleted quite a large portion of the article.

Yeah I know I sounded a bit contradictory, sorry about that. The reason for it is not every outcome is the same, sometimes it occurs sometimes it doesn't, I have no idea what to expect each time.

Yes, Visual Editor is without a doubt key part of the problem. But, for me, it only posed a significant problem with Google Chrome. The Visual Editor appears slightly different when I use FireFox. While I'm not sure if it also occurs on FireFox, the times I have been aware of it occuring is Chrome. I don't know if it occurs on any other browser that other users might use.

I'm aware of the Editing tab, and nowadays I always try to select Classic Editor. But if by chance I am using Viusal, quite often problems will arise. And yeah I didnt know you could change the editor preference, I think the default is still Visual, so you're probably right in users not changing the preference.

Look, I'll keep checking for the problem and once I come up with a more solid explanation I'll let you know. But based on what I can currently gather, that's the best I can offer. I'm sorry if it's not much to go by.
