I think the spellchecker is using the selection code and that is
resistant to user actions, so you might want to look on how that code
is working.
A very similar mechanism is how I'm planning to fix Find bar
highlighting at some point (bug 263683). You use a different selection
type than SELECTION_NORMAL (which is the user selection and the find bar
current match). I'm planning to add a type for highlighting. That will
mean the find bar no longer has to goof with the DOM, which should fix a
lot of issues.
