(The WebApps WG is bcc'ed since the changes were inspired by "them".)
Based on input from the WebApps WG and discussion at TPAC I made the
following changes to the CSSOM View draft:
A) caretRangeFromPoint() has been replaced with caretPositionFromPoint().
The latter also works for text input controls. I'm not a 100% sure whether
<textarea> should be included there or not given that it does have a child
text node. Any thoughts?
It's also a rough draft still. Suggestions for improvements are welcome.

B) The concept of views has been removed as has been discussed at TPAC.
We'll add a note to DOM Level 2 Views soon to make it clear it should not
be implemented in that way. See also this thread:

Addressing the other outstanding issues might take a little longer.
