Re: [editing-explainer] Can we use textnodes, and block/inline nodes as shadow roots for transparent IME handling? (#57)

I think the basic answer will be that (in my proposal), the browser doesn't do anything specific with regards to 2 and 3.  e.g. if the editor is serializing the edited content as HTML, then the HTML parser will create a single text node instead of two text nodes that are adjacent to each other since HTML isn't round trip safe for such a DOM tree.  Similarly, if the app decides not to insert text, then the browser doesn't do anything with the caret element or the text nodes around it.
