--- Comment #8 from Aron Budea <baron at caesar.elte.hu> ---
To me where the cursor ends up after deletion with change tracking seems like a
minor detail, as it doesn't affect the behavior, unlike when change tracking is
disabled. I can accept either decision, but can't establish what would be the
choice.

I checked Word for reference, there deleting selection with change tracking is
according to your expectation: depends on whether the key was backspace/delete.
Do we want to behave the same way as Word?

There seems to be another interesting (unrelated) difference in how change
tracking works in Word: if you have part of a word selected, and start typing
(thus replace the selected part), then Word replaces the whole word with your
typing and the unchanged part, not only the selection.
