Comment:

 While this is still an issue in IE 8 (just tested) and probably in IE 9
 too, it's November 2015 now and wondering if it's worth it. Old IEs have a
 different way to retrieve and store (or, better, don't store) the caret
 position compared to modern browsers. Also, the old DFW doesn't exist
 anymore and the new one (disabled for IE 8) is basically the visual editor
 where inserting an image works correctly.
 I'd propose to close this ticket but will defer the final decision to
 @azaozz :)
