You'd probably need to follow this thread back to the beginning to get all the 
details, but in short part of the design calls for highlighting a portion of 
text and having that be the starting point. Also, automatically highlighting 
text as it is read. I'm thinking we might be able to use contenteditable to 
have more fine control over the actual text on the page, as well as making 
everything keyboard usable. The trick will be to prevent a user form hitting 
ctrl-b and making the element bold or deleting content from the page and etc. 

Thanks
Justin
