--- Comment #4 from Danilo <db at threema.ch> ---
I came across this problem when implementing a text editor. The spec clearly says that a reference should be returned, not a copy, so Safari does not implement getRangeAt in a compliant way.

A workaround is to modify the returned range, to remove the existing selection ranges and to re-add the modified range to the DOM. But that's quite an inefficient way of working with selections and ranges.
