Expected:
The following buttons to be available:

• SpecialChar

• Style selector

Actual behavior:

Those buttons are missing.

Root cause: Many plugins were intentionally removed in CKEditor upgrade to v1.14.1 see here, however with the upgrade, customers lost plugins in the editor when they install newer hotfix.

As a solution, we would use the missing plugins as extraPlugins in CKEditorConfigContributor.java.
