Public bug reported:

>From within the task editor, I create a new subtask '- new subtask',
then press enter, a new arrow appears ready for a new subtask.  I start
typing, but mistype and press backspace until just the arrow is left on
the line.  The arrow converts from the large subtask arrow to a plain
"body text" arrow.  The new text is no longer a subtask.

Also, placing the cursor just after the first character of a subtask
text, then press backspace.  This converts the complete subtask text
into normal text and changes the arrow into a plain arrow.  It is almost
like the subtask tag is being erased.

I expect to be able to correct my mistake at the beginning of the
subtask text without the subtask being undone.  Of course, if I
backspace over the arrow, i expect the subtask to effectively be
deleted.  Currently, I have to backspace over the arrow to fix a mistake
made at the beginning of the subtask text.
