Hi Team,

Another dumpster dive in Chromium Monorail to find any test case broken in Safari / Webkit and I came across following:

Test Case - https://jsfiddle.net/2s64xjve/

----

<textarea id="text"></textarea>
<button onclick="document.getElementById('text').focus();">Focus</button>
<script>
  var textarea = document.getElementById('text');
  textarea.addEventListener('focus', function (e) {
    console.log(textarea.selectionStart);
  });
</script>

Chrome Bug Link - https://crbug.com/526516

*** STEPS TO REPRODUCE ***

1) Go to JSFiddle
2) Type something in the field
3) Place your cursor in the middle or somewhere in the text and click on "Focus"

<<< ACTUAL RESULT >>>

Returns 0

<<< EXPECTED RESULT >>>

Show the caret position or character where our IBEAM cursor is.

^^^ OTHER BROWSERS ^^^

Chrome Canary 107 - shows position of IBEAM
Firefox Nightly 106 - shows position of IBEAM
Safari Technology Preview 152 - shows "Actual Result"

Matching other browsers would be great and why not another chance to make Webkit better.

Thanks!
