Re: [w3c/editing] Should execCommand dispatch beforeinput or not? (#200)

@masayuki-nakano If you want to, you can add something to the `execCommand` spec about it. That document is not expected to move beyond draft status and anything `execCommand` related can go in there. I don't have an opinion on whether a beforeinput event should or should not be triggered when `execCommand` is executed and whether that event then is cancelable or not, as it's irrelevant for the JavaScript editors that are out there.

For the resizing issue: This resizing feature is disabled by default now, right? So unless JavaScript reenables it using `execCommand` or the user enables it in the browser configuration, it is off - correct? If my assumption is correct, and given that this is a feature that is only still there because a small number of Firefox users are using it in an intranet app somewhere, I would argue it's ok not to add it to the spec. But I would also be ok with adding it there as long as it's something the user can trigger by doing things in the browser and not just programmatically through `execCommand`.
