Comment:

After discussion with @Reinmar we decided that the behavior of the functions in editor, editable and selection is different:

• selection should know nothing about editor, config or editable, it contains only wrappers for the native methods and getSelectedText is such wrapper so it goes to selection,
• editable knows about editor and the config so it may contains method which behavior depends on configuration, also it contains lower level methods then editor so (get|extract)HtmlFromRange methods go there,
• editor contains high level API, methods user may often want to use, which works the way user expect, so (get|extract)selectedHtml goes there.

The original idea was to put (get|extract)selectedHtml into editable and link it in editor, but in fact these methods do nothing but join selection (which is property on the editor not editable) and (get|extract)HtmlFromRange so in my opinion there is no point in having them in the editable.

Changes in ​t/12878.
