Re: [w3c/selection-api] Specify Selection.modify()? (#37)

Would it be possible to define abstract operations whose general semantics are clear, but which allow for deviations based on platform conventions or user preference? The spec could invoke those, and we wouldn't be able to write tests for all of it, but if for example all implementations agree about the behavior of Latin script, at least that much could be asserted. Or if there are only 2-3 sensible things to for other scripts, assert that one of those things happens? That'd at least lock down behavior to what's already shipping and help if Edge wanted to add support.
