The current implementation of RemoveFormatCommand deletes the entire selection and put them back using insertText.  But this deletes all elements within the selection.  We must implement a new version of RemoveFormatCommand that matches the behaviors of other browsers such as MSIE and Firefox.

As discussed on webkit-dev, we need to do the following:

1. Determine what each browser do for every HTML / CSS element on removeFormat
2. Rewrite RemoveFormat to match the desired behavior
