Wysiwyg: TinyMCE breaks body characters counter?

Issue Summary

My users report that the body characters counter doesn't work with TinyMCE - the use of non-plain text seems to stop the counter working?

I've searched the old issues and can't find any mention of this from anyone else which seems improbable!!

Does anyone else have this problem and if so is there an easy fix? I thought about disabling it for that body type but it seems to use the standard body so I think I can't do that?

Since this module was never designed or tested to work with TinyMCE module, this is a feature request, not a bug request, and will be treated accordingly.

Please be mindful the issue submission guidelines.

I have this problem with out text editors, when you initially create an ad it does have the charactor counter under the body field, but if you go back and edit the text, it lets you type as many charactors as you like. I got around the issue by setting my "body field" format drop down to trimmed and then changed the trimmed length to what I want users to be able to post. It definately would be better if the counter was there even when edited, I guess it needs to be rechecked when editing somehow

This seems strange: I did some tests on 7.x-3.x with TinyMCE and did not encounter this problem, although it was present on 5.x alright.

Can you describe how to reproduce it, starting from a clean D7 install: modules installed, order of install, settings, actions... ?
