<pre>I am not even kidding about the title change, Darin regressed this almost 11 years ago:
<a href="http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/8780">http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/8780</a>
The relevant mistake can be seen here, where the code no longer computes 'prepend' based on the selection direction, nor does it change to disambiguate inside _deleteRange using the passed-in deletion type enum.
<a href="https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/commit/05b622f#diff-2929972b50734b9742ad9676920551a0L4153">https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/commit/05b622f#diff-2929972b50734b9742ad9676920551a0L4153</a>
Sorry Darin! This should not be too difficult to fix, though the code has moved about 30 times in 11 years. Might take a while to find the exact place to do it.</pre>
