Test case

Given an element that has contentEditable. Focus it and select some text. Now
click on something else that does not start a new selection
(Node::canStartSelection is false). The selection is kept which is fine,
however, now press a key on your keyboard. The contentEditable element steals
the focus and modifies its content.

The same problem exists for input and textareas but there is a workaround in
the code to always collapse their selection in
FocusController::clearSelectionIfNeeded.

See test case for clearer repro steps.
