Re: [w3c/editing] Different browser behaviors when moving the caret by one word. (#278)

> Correct me if I've misunderstood, but I think what you're saying @masayuki-nakano and @rniwa is that we generally want to mirror a **platform's convention**, but that ‘platform’ in this case refers to the **underlying OS** and not the browser. 

Yes, I intended so.

But I misunderstood this issue. I was thinking that this was a request for same behavior for moving to word boundaries across OS (Windows have a different manner about this). However, this issue is for consistency of the word boundary detection across browsers. As @rniwa -san said, some languages require heuristic to consider word boundaries. Mozilla has [a plan to change the logic](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1684927), though, I think that it's not scope of Editing API.

So, I don't think that this should be standardized.
