Consider merging https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/blink/+/b6af644f3fa0f51d94ab374648e56ec3e390a517

It should be able to extend selection from top to bottom of any document without getting stuck.

Currently the selection gets stuck if you hit a contenteditable element; it should be possible to skip past it.

I tried this as Partial Merge by not doing "Caret Mode" changes but I think it is beyond my expertise and get build failures:
