Build ID: 20160105164030

Steps to reproduce:

demo: http://jsfiddle.net/crl/cpzgzr7p/7/


Actual results:

the text is splitted after insertHTML (this differs from webkit, but this is fine), the problem is that the instance of the startContainer become the last text node instead of the first one (like it should occur when using .splitText )




Expected results:

It should have kept sc (startContainer) as the first text node, it's particularly important to select the change that was done
