> I agree that the editor should not go into composition mode if just a selection is set, but I don't think ImSurroundingText should exclude the selection. That doesn't sound correct to me and in fact it's not what QTextEdit or QLineEdit do in response to that input method query.

OK, need some guidance on what is considered surrounding text in the following sequence then:

    //Set selection with negative length
    inputAttributes << QInputMethodEvent::Attribute(QInputMethodEvent::Selection, 6, -5, QVariant());
    QInputMethodEvent eventSelection3("",inputAttributes);
    page->event(&eventSelection3);

    //ImCursorPosition
    variant = page->inputMethodQuery(Qt::ImCursorPosition);
    cursorPosition =  variant.toInt();
    QCOMPARE(cursorPosition, 6);

    //ImCurrentSelection
    variant = page->inputMethodQuery(Qt::ImCurrentSelection);
    selectionValue = variant.value<QString>();
    QCOMPARE(selectionValue, QString("tWebK"));

    //ImSurroundingText
    variant = page->inputMethodQuery(Qt::ImSurroundingText);
    QString value = variant.value<QString>();
    QCOMPARE(value, QString("Qit"));

My understanding was that we set the selected text into composition mode with the first call. This makes the selected text the input area, so the subsequent call to ImSurroundingText should return the text that surrounds the text in composition mode, i.e. 'Qit'.
