No way to intercept command-b or command-i on Mac WebKit

HTML editors need to be able to tie in to do their own bold/italic handling (for notification change events or for recording extra data).  Multiple HTML editing libraries @ Google have hacks around this bug.

The current best-practice hack is to make the editable region plain-text only, and catch they key events yourself.  You never see the key events if the editable region is full rich text.

Actually, I'm wrong.  You can turn on read-write-plaintext-only, but then you still don't get any key events to catch.
