Thanks for turning my demo into a full patch!

I would use the commit message to explain a few things:

- The requirements you have evaluated the code against:leading,
  embedded, and trailing whitespace/tabs in both the first and other
  lines; the ability to select part of lines (that ruled out using a
  elements around the entire line).

- which browsers you have tested with and their versions.

- How the new code degrades if browsers don't support this or that
  feature. How many users will this affect?

- Performance of the new solution. Does it work with a 10,000 line file?

- A note saying that the patch is based on my work :)

Basically a summary of the discussion we've had on the list so that
people can see why you picked this solution over the others.

Finally: does this not affect any tests? If the tests need updating,
then you should put that into this commit. Otherwise the commit
introduces test failures.
