Assumptions:
Using wstring (UCS2) instead of string encoded in UTF-8.
Multibyte encodings (or at least potentially multi-byte
encodings) would be preferred for the reasons cited above.
The following methods will throw an exception on failure
(since not every text component will allow every operation):
setSelectionBounds, addSelection, removeSelection, setCaretOffset.
we assume that all text components support the idea of
a caret offset, whether visible or "virtual". If this
isn't the case, caretOffset can be made readonly and
a setCaretOffset method provided which throws an exception
on failure (as with *selection methods above).
