Summary:
See movie
To enter a new email address I copy the text from a tweet and edit this in the To: field. I do this all the time on platforms which don’t recognise email addresses.
It took me several flabbergasted tries before I recognised is as a bug.

Steps to Reproduce:
paste a blob of text in the To: field of a new email message, the email address is optional
put your cursor somewhere in the middle and start pressing backspace.
Just before deleting the last character, watch closely.


Expected Results:
I expect the text **after** the cursor to remain when I press BACKspace.


Actual Results:
All text is deleted.

Version/Build:
iOS 11.1.1

Configuration:
iPad Pro 10”
