Please add support for "getSelectedText()" #30

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

I'm attempting to swap-in gwt-ckedtior in place of a pre-exisiting GWT 
TextArea, and discovered that the "getSelectedText()" method (or reasonable 
facsimile) is not available.

Using gwt-ckeditor version 0.5 On OS X 10.6.5

Thanks

I have added a getSelection() method that returns a JavaScriptObject 
representing this object :

As you can see, getting the selected text is not quite simple with CKEditor 
because every DOM node can be selected, not only text nodes.
