When highlighting text and using the quote button, the replaced text is incorrect. It takes the end of the quote, and adds that as extra to both the beginning and the end of the replaced text, messing up the quote. This text is quoted below as an example.

I'm on Chrome 6.0.458.1 dev on Win7. I've duplicated this on several of the sites (SO, MSO, as well as WA and WM). No problems with Firefox 3.6 or IE8.

No repro in the current version of Chrome (5.0.375.99).

Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, 'and what is the use of a book,' thought Alice 'without pictures or conversation?'

For the record, we don't support unreleased beta browsers.

I am getting the same bug on Chrome 6.0.472.62/Ubuntu 10.04.

This is really annoying... For some reason it was working fine but it's broken now. Anyone find a solution for this?
