 No, the browsers don't allow that. You cannot move the cursor before the
 first element. This is one of several "oddities" when the browser is in
 designMode - cursor placement. The list of these glitches is quite long
 and browser and version dependent.

 This is a rare case. What you're actually doing is inserting a [gallery]
 shortcode in the middle of an image caption and breaking it.

 Don't see what WordPress can do through TinyMCE to fix the inadequate
 `designMode` in the browsers. This ticket is either "wontfix" or maybe
 "far in the future release" that could be addressed after all browsers
 decide to improve their support for live editing of HTML.

 In any case certain tasks in the editor have to be completed in certain
 way to achieve certain results, same as in all software applications.

 To reproduce:
  1. Insert captioned image into new post.
  2. Insert gallery.
  3. Enjoy your new post with an image above the gallery.
