           Summary: execCommand("RemoveFormat") might remove format after
                    the selection
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML Editing
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: csaavedra at igalia.com


This looks to me like a bug. If we have the following HTML:

    "<q><b><div>hello world</div></b>WebKit</q>"

and we select everything from "world" until right before "WebKit", execCommand("RemoveFormat") will yield the following HTML:

    "<div><q><b>hello </b></q>world</div>WebKit"

This is inconsistent with the behavior of "RemoveFormat" otherwise. Take the following too cases:

1) If we select only "world" before applying "RemoveFormat", the <q> tag is placed also around "WebKit":

    "<div><q><b>hello </b></q>world</div><q>WebKit</q>"

2) If we select "world</div><q>W", then the <q> tag is placed around "ebKit" too:

    "<div><q><b>hello </b></q>world</div>W<q>ebKit</q>"
