Hey,

I'm looking into implementing setRangeText() on text controls.
setRangeText is a convenience method to set/replace ranges of text and
manipulate the existing/resulting selection in text form controls.

Tracking bug: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91907
Spec: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/association-of-controls-and-forms.html#dom-textarea/input-setrangetext
whatwg discussion:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-whatwg-archive/2012Apr/0277.html

Let me know if you have any thoughts or reservations.

Thanks!
