How is the playback part going to be used? WebKitTestRunner has JS functions to simulate text input functions, will this be different?

The purpose of this project is to provide a means for clients to remember DOM changes that occurred due to editing, and later replay these DOM changes in a separate page that allows the user to step through each of the editing actions and DOM changes that occurred, one by one. Thus, the EditingHistory project is unrelated to our testing infrastructure (e.g. TestWebKitAPI and WebKitTestRunner).

The playback part happens when the user opens the playback harness and loads a .json file containing editing history. This allows the user to 'seek' through the editing that occurred, an input at a time.
