I suggest separating discussion of revealing caret and revealing non-caret selection. We do the former in most cases (like when pasting or using arrow keys), so it's an easier question to answer if we need that for programmatically moved caret.

Revealing any programmatically changed selection is a bit more questionable. For example, what if a script performs search and replace, changing the selection each time? Will we want to waste time displaying every state? I'm sure there are more cases like this.

At the same time, I am not aware of any reasons for limiting the discussion to designMode="on".
