Within an element with contenteditable=true after making a selection:

1. If we extend the "end" of the selection over an element with contenteditable=false, the selection proceeds smoothly and can be later modified.
2. If we extend the "start" of the selection over an element with contenteditable=false, the selection disappears and does not return.

Apologies - in the attached repro instructions the text which reads

> Not working
> On an iOS device, select some text from the left section

Should read

> Not working
> On an iOS device, select some text from the right section

The fix for this issue was needed outside the WebKit project, therefore this is being resolved as 'Moved'.

This issue should be fixed in an upcoming iOS 15.4 Beta.

Issue still appears in 15.5 beta for me. Was the fix delayed?
