Has anyone else ever experienced this?  In revising a manuscript, which
involves opening and checking all the embedded notes, I frequently find
that, after I open one and then close it by hitting F3, there is a delta
(I think it is an RP delta) inserted in my text, messing everything up.
From the look of it this is the delta that appears in the main body of the
text as a "place marker" while the note is open, and that should disappear
when it is closed.  It is easy enough to go back and delete the delta, but
it is an irritant, and I suspect that some of my more serious problems in
the past have been caused by not noticing such things in time.  Does
anyone know what is going on?
