Sadly I don't understand some of what you wrote. Let me see what I understood.
You're saying you want to check how other rendering engines behave. I ran the test from comment #37 on Chrome and IE. Both continue text entry with the font present on the first line, so their behaviour is what I would expect. Next you talk about "test cases" where you click and dump out the selection. In this case, we do a single click, so the selection will have one collapsed range. I don't know which property of the Selection or Range you want to inspect, maybe selRange.[start|end]Container.nodeName. I've stripped down the so-called Midas demo and added some information about the clicking when carrying out the text case from comment #37. Result: FF: BODY, continues in the wrong font. Chrome: #text, continues with the correct font. IE: #text if you used <enter> between the lines, or BODY if you used <shift><enter>, continues with correct font in both cases. Let me know what to do next.

The second line appear smaller than the first. It's barely perceptible, so half them time I think I am imagining it. Well, I've started Bccing to myself to check, and the emails I am receiving from myself are not only a different size, they're also a different font. Composer starts in some default serif, and by the second line is sans. I'd bee glad to email someone viz thunderbird, and also send along a screenshot of how it looks while I am typing. Thanks.
