patch w/ layout test

These functions are only used in moving cursor by word, more specifically, the 2 newly added functions only triggered when finding word break on next or previous line.
Considering the speed of key press in  real use case, where user press ctrl (alt) + arrow to move cursor by word,  and considering the functions are only triggered when searching words across line boundary ("\n" in text field, not wrapped lines), I do not think performance is a concern here. Traversing DOM node is a much cleaner/safer solution.
