Re: [web-annotation] Range Selector

I also believe that a generic range selector offers semantic benefits 
for certain kinds of selection, as compared with existing selectors 
for the same content.

For instance, a range selector that identifies sentence `A` with a 
text quote and sentence `B` with a text quote could continue to 
accurately describe a passage even with the insertion or removal of 
intervening sentences. Whether or not the selection still accurately 
captures the author's intent is out of scope and unknowable, but 
having the power to express a range with this sort of robustness is 
simply what is proposed here.
