test case

The test case works in Firefox nightlies and as best I can tell, matches the
spec: http://www.w3.org/TR/cssom-view/#dom-range-getclientrects.

Personally, I think we should make this case work even without the text node.
It matches IE and fits what developers actually want in practice. The pushback
it's gotten has all be that it's complicated to spec. See:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Feb/0062.html

In either case, we should start with matching the spec.
