Description:
If I single-click to set the cursor focus into any editable text string in the object editor window, then immediately press the DEL key to delete the next character to the right, instead the figure in the Diagram window is IMMEDIATELY REMOVED FROM THE DIAGRAM! Every subsequent press of the DEL key REMOVES ANOTHER OBJECT FROM THE DIAGRAM! 

This is REALLY DANGEROUS, however, if you notice what you did, you can recover if you click once in the Diagram window and press CTR-Z(s) to undo your last operation(s).

I REPEAT: Besides being really annoying this is REALLY DANGEROUS!

How to repeat:
How to reproduce:

1) Create a new EER Diagram
2) Place a new table in the diagram
3) Double click on the table to bring up the object editor.
4) In the 'Table Name:' field single-click to set the cursor between the "t" and the "a".
5) Press the DEL key to delete the "a" character.
6) BAM! Your new table disappears from the diagram!

Note: If you triple-click to set the cursor position then the DEL key works correctly.

This happens in ANY object.

Thanks! This ppears to be fixed in MWB 5.3.47 CE.  How can I get 5.2.47 SE? I really need the "DBDoc - Model Reporting" and "Validation" features from the SE version.
