The operations "change" the selection, but the fact that the operations don't *change the selection's location in the DOM* is just an implementation detail.  

Note for example that RTL -> LTR *will* result in a call to respondToChangedSelection() if the DOM was:

<div contentEditable="true" style="direction: RTL">^<br></div>

since a new div will need to be created to give the paragraph direction:LTR.  This will change the DOM enough to change the selection's DOM location after the operation.

I don't see any reason why we should start a new kill ring sequence for this DOM but not the one mentioned in the bug.  Same for the change notification.
