Repro steps: 1) Create a range with Javascript and set the base and extent as: range.setBaseAndExtent(start, 0, end, 0); and select it. 2) Creacte a range with Javascript and set the base and extent as: range.setBaseAndExtent(end, 0, start, 0); and select it. Expected result: The current selection should be reversed: end-to-start. Actual result: The current selection does not change when the second range is selected. See the attached link for a test case. Notice that if you clear the selection between the two steps, everything works as expected.
