Testcase

When users select text using a rapid mouse movement that extends outside of the contenteditable tag the selection behaviour is not always what a user expects: ie. the click mid way through text, drag (to select) all the way beyond the left (start) of the contenteditable, selection stops several characters before the start of the contenteditable contents. 

Attached test case includes three content editable areas: h1 that contains a <div>, an h1 that contains only text and a p tag.
