Anything else we should think about as we review?

The WG is thinking about putting together a new doc on how users interact with contentEditable and EditContext, probably around the idea of editing hosts and user interaction.

This is a recharter of the Web Editing Working Group, a long-standing Working Group dealing with a rich editing experience on the web. This update seems minor, adding the Caret Movement Specification as a deliverable to improve the rich editing experience, including enhanced internationalization support. We are closing this review as satisfied.
