The above patch fixes the range methods on detached node. I kept all the constraints as per DOM2 spec with additional null parent check as mentioned in the spec http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/ . The actual fix is made by allowing element node to be a root container though its not specified anywhere in the specs.

After looking at chromium code, I couldn't conclude whether to completely stick by DOM4 spec or both DOM2 as well as DOM4. So, I made the fix in similar fashion as chromium.
