Bug Description

Currently the textarea uses a mirror div element that is invisible and should match the visible textarea completely. The text in the mirror div is sanitized and special characters are escaped during the before rendering phase. This leas to difference in the text length in the visible textarea and the mirror element. The difference causes problems during textarea growing.
We can try to sanitize the mirror div content only when submitting a form.
