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

I don't think we can spec. word boundary movement.  Also, various browser supports other granularity of caret movements.  For example, Safari supports moving the caret by sentences and paragraphs.  And I don't think we want to be spec what a sentence or a paragraph of text means.  In general, any attempt to define what how selection gets updated in response to a user action won't be fruitful.

The thing we can and should spec here is the normalization of Range browsers would apply after the user had changed the selection.
