A quick Google search showed that you can't just place a contenteditable with angularjs and have it just work. Use an input with ng-bind or an other directive dedicated to this use case.
If you just can't get a cursor and start typing

• try using an inner div with contenteditable and
• check jquery UI docs for an option that disables selection

I was not able to use contenteditable in this simple non-angularJS example. I suppose this issue should be closed and your use case should be discussed somewhere else.

You might want to take a look at the proposed directive in #11.

Related to this issue: it is not possible to enter a contenteditable element within a ui-sortable container with a left click. See http://codepen.io/rh/pen/oXGORP.

It is possible to enter it with tab or a right click.
