The third choice is to have a different behavior for FF and IE.
Since I don't think we need to bold only a portion of word (I can't
think of a real world use case for it), I'd also prefer b)
(independently of the problem of implementing a) for IE).
Just to be sure, if I type the following:
* Type "hello"
* Hit space
* click on bold
* type "world"
Will "world" be in bold?
