Description Hajime Morrita 2010-10-18 00:54:30 PDT 
Derived from Bug 47659. Following set of TextInputController API is not IM framework specific and 
should be available via LayoutController.

- textInputController.attributedSubstringFromRange
- textInputController.firstRectForCharacterRange
- textInputController.selectedRange
- textInputController.hasSpellingMarker

The original idea was that TextInputController implements AppKit NSTextInput protocol. I'm not sure where hasSpellingMarker came from.

Sure!
So I keep NSTxtInput originated method, 
and will add aliases or introduce test-specific APIs to DRT.
The goal of this change is to make IM-independent editing tests portable.
