Description
Chrome:
aText.setSelectionRange(5,2);
aText.getSelectionRange(); --> [5,2];
Firefox:
aText.setSelectionRange(5,2);
aText.getSelectionRange(); --> [2,5];
Swap values if this is Firefox and Text was selected from right to left? Edge cases? People using DOM API?

Research direction
Start with lively.morphic.tests.TextMorphTests.test05bSetSelectionRangeRightToLeft and reproduce the differing setSelectionRange/getSelectionRange results in Chrome and Firefox. Read the surrounding TextMorph selection tests and investigate the DOM API behavior, including right-to-left and edge cases. Done means the expected cross-browser behavior is defined and covered by the test.
