[webkit-dev] Overhauling the way selection works in WebKit

[Ryosuke Niwa]

Hi all,

For your information, I'm going to completely change the way WebKit's
selection works in the next week or two.  The following changes will be
made (not necessarily in the order):

   - FrameSelection.setSelection will *no longer* set focus by default,
   resolving very old webkit.org/b/38696
   - Selection and caret's appearance will be updated *asynchronously*
   - FrameSelection::setSelection will *not* validate its VisibleSelection
   until explicitly asked to do so

Some of these changes will require a large number of editing tests
rebaselines, and I'll follow up on them as I create patches.

- R. Niwa

Hi,

I'm happy to announce that Sergio (svillar) is now a WebKit reviewer! 

Sergio's areas of expertize span from WebCore (CSS Grid Layout, Parser,
editing) to WebKit2 with a special dedication to the GTK port. Sergio
also spends a lot of efforts on the libsoup networking backend.

Thanks Sergio for all the work you have done so far and congratulations!

Philippe
