Re: [selection-api] caret-based selection movement (#27)

You are right, the [I]-button would probably be pushed. More importantly though, the user cannot switch between the two places of the caret. The browser will decide where it goes. Defining the default position as you do seems to make the issue go away.

However: notice that while this works for i-elements, it's quite different for links, where the default position seem to be:

```
<p>Hello |<a href="http://www.austria.com">Austria</a>|</p> 
```

This difference in behavior should be spec'ed and it should be made clear when which of the two applies.
