Ok, here's what it looks like is happening:
* user types "m"
** select (0, 0] (empty selection)
** insert "म्" (two characters: "m" and no-vowel placeholder)
* user types "i"
** select (1, 2] (select the second char: no-vowel placeholder)
** insert "ि" ("i" combining character, replacing the placeholder)
In Firefox, this works fine.
But in Chrome & Safari, the setSelection call to (1, 2] fails -- the resulting
selection is set to (2, 2], so we end up inserting the new character after the
character we meant to replace.
I think the system is trying to outsmart us and isn't letting us select a
combining character by itself... which is pretty inconvenient since that's
explicitly what we're trying to do. :P
