I am using the function performDocumentReplaceRange([]) to make update to the dom for table modifications. However this function modifies the caret user's position.

Basically what I am looking for is something like the clearAuthorship functionality where the dom is being re-witten w/o affecting the user's caret position.

Any idea?
