The single greatest thing about the social web is how it has forced people to overcome their technophobias in order to connect with other humans.

Cross-browser selection UI injection flow:
mouseup
on body
window.getSelection()
s.isCollapsed === false
, returns.getRangeAt(0)
r.surroundContents(e)
e.innerHTML
and e.textContent
now return useful values, and e’s coordinates can be used to inject UI into the pageTo resolve: what element should e be? Or more accurately, what display property should it have? Possibly inline-block
(inline mucks up if selection is across block elements, block mucks up selections within text nodes)
r.surroundContent
, namely that it does not handle partial element selections. See MDNs explanation and solution.
