           Summary: [Gtk] caret offset not updated when selecting text
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Accessibility
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: joanmarie.diggs at gmail.com

Steps to reproduce:

1. Launch Epiphany and Accerciser.

2. In Epiphany, position the caret within some text.

3. In Accerciser's tree of accessibles on the left, highlight the accessible
text object which corresponds to the object chosen in step 2.

4. In Accerciser's iPython Console, type:

     acc.queryText().caretOffset

5. In Epiphany, press Shift + Right Arrow two times to select two characters to
the right

6. In Accerciser's iPython Console, type:

     acc.queryText().caretOffset

Expected results: The offset returned in step 6 would reflect the new location
of the caret (the step 4 offset + 2).

Actual results: The offset returned in step 6 is the same as the step 4 offset.

(Xan, I believe that the fix for this bug, combined with your fixes for bug
26814 and bug 26815, should cause the presentation of selected text by ATs like
Orca to JustWork(tm) -- which will be awesome. Sorry for not catching this one
the other day!!)
