/*
 Assumptions:

 Using wstring (UCS2) instead of string encoded in UTF-8.
        Multibyte encodings (or at least potentially multi-byte
        encodings) would be preferred for the reasons cited above.

 The following methods will throw an exception
 on failure (since not every text component will allow
        every operation):
 setSelectionBounds, addSelection, removeSelection,
        setCaretOffset.

 getRangeAttributes defined to return an nsISupports
 interface instead of a pango specific data structure.
        It may be that some other return type is more appropriate
        for mozilla text attributes.

        we assume that all text components support the idea of
        a caret offset, whether visible or "virtual".  If this
        isn't the case, caretOffset can be made readonly and
        a setCaretOffset method provided which throws an exception
        on failure (as with *selection methods above).
