After working my way through the various samples and tutorials out there, I’m 
about to start on my first Om app (yay!).

Possibly foolishly, I’m planning to make heavy use of contentEditable. In 
essence, what I need to do is replicate something similar to Word’s “track 
changes” functionality. Ideally, I’d like to get this to play nicely with Om’s 
undo - the complication being that as well as changes made by the app, I’d also 
need to undo changes made by the user (ideally wrapping changes made by both 
into a single logical undo).

I’ve done quite a bit of searching, and getting React to play nicely with 
contentEditable seems to be a largely unexplored area? Chas Emerick’s message 
on the React mailing list seems to capture the current state of the art:

Although this looks promising:

Is there anything else that I should be aware of? Any words of wisdom or advice 
before I dive into this (including “don’t use Om for this - it’s the wrong tool 
for the job” :-)?
