Re: [web-annotation] (model) vague definition of charactor position for text position selector

@mark-buer : 

Just trying to reproduce the discussion on the first F2F meeting:  
there are JS libraries available to handle code points properly. Ie, 
although all this may be difficult to implement on top of current, 
built-in JS in browsers, it can be implemented nevertheless (note that
 this is exactly the role of the Candidate Recommendation phase: to 
check whether the implementation is implementable...). The feeling on 
the meeting was that we had better be forward looking in this respect.

(When using other environments than browsers it seems that the issue 
is easy to handle, because other languages seem to be more advanced in
 this respect...)
