Details

Right now, it's not possible to position the caret inbetween objects to select them, in composer. This then requires workarounds to provide enough space for the caret to be drawn. This shouldn't need to happen, and as such needs fixing. :)

Joe, can you reproduce this and bug 105684?
Without the ability to see the html tags, selection is a hit or miss affair. You have no idea what you are really selecting when you swipe. What we really need is a visible representation of the actual html with tags as in seamonkey composer. Without that selection will always be a shot in the dark.
