> Could you explain how this bug is impacting CKEditor?  It seems like you're trying to apply styles to a selection?

That's exactly the problem. The detail is that we're talking about a "collapsed" selection. I mean, just have the caret blinking inside the editor, hit CTRL+B for Bold (bug: nothing is happening at this point) and type some text. There will be no style applied.

Just to give you more details, here you have the code being executed:

1st part, this small if block. Note that even if we're using an internal range manipulation class, it works much like the DOM range implementation of WebKit:
http://dev.ckeditor.com/browser/CKEditor/trunk/_source/plugins/styles/plugin.js?rev=5847#L360

2nd part - it's a bit more complicated, but basically we're transforming our internal range representation in a native WebKit range and selecting it:
http://dev.ckeditor.com/browser/CKEditor/trunk/_source/plugins/selection/plugin.js?rev=5812#L1040

The attached TC reflects the above exactly.
