--- Comment #3 from Darin Adler <darin at apple.com> ---
Seems OK.

I’m a little unclear on what these line numbers are.

On the other hand, when writing tests it’s important the test results do give context of what is being tested, and where messages are coming from. I’ve had a really annoying time debugging tests when something is wrong, but there is no label explaining where the value came from in a sea of test results.

For example, look at this:

https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/259184/webkit/trunk/LayoutTests/editing/mac/input/firstrectforcharacterrange-plain-expected.txt

The old expected result was ... not good.
