As an implementer of a WYSIWYG editor, I would use this all the time:
Inserting an Image and having a reference to it.
Inserting HTML, then being able to filter the content.
Hopefully capturing the change from a paste event so I can
fix/filter the content.
I fully agree we need

So what about if I did a document.execCommand('bold') on that selection?

Why not do:
function showInfo() {
// get a copy of the current selection ranges
var ranges = [];
var selecti

It's too late to change that kind of

Not sure this will be useful, but I thought it worth mentioning.
Folks working on WebKit haven't proposed any execCommand extensions.
But WebKit has a lot of editing commands that are alongside the
execCommand ones, unavailable from JavaScript because we've done that

The concept of joint blocks (which should rather be named disjoint canvas)
is relevant mainly to printouts. As it has already been explained in the
booklet case, HTML is not the primary workhorse for preparing professional
printouts. Window content is stretchable, unlike a print sheet, therefore

While we are at collections and arrays, it is worth noting that the
{coll.length} attribute is a misnomer. I would always ask for {coll.count}
when I was learning and meditate upon why it did not work.

A background task invoked by setTimeout has to be split to small chunks;
_yielding_ occurs when each chunk ends (having called setTimeout to execute
the next chunk). It is very hard to code in this way; you have to maintain
an explicit stack and create an exit/entry point at every chunk boundary.
All right, in that case I give up. It is plainly insane. The VIDEO element
is for displaying movies, not for displaying funny messages that the user
should install codec XYZ. If it cannot display the movie, it should display
the fallback content provided. If the author wants the user to install
