           Summary: Selection bias reversed when setting a range after
                    left key down
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
               URL: http://jsfiddle.net/3Wpc8/
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML Editing
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: harrylepotter at gmail.com


If you try to change the selection between a Shift + Left key down and Left key up event, the selection bias is reversed (i.e. anchorOffset/focusOffset are switched)
This appears to be a bug in webkit derived browsers only, and does not appear to happen on Internet explorer or firefox.

A demonstration can be found at:
http://jsfiddle.net/3Wpc8/

To reproduce the bug:
-open the jsfiddle, and select the word "two". 
- hold shift and press the left arrow key
- observe that the offsets are reversed rather than the expected behavior (..decrementing the focusOffset)
