 In testing the new TinyMCE-powered Text widget (#35243), I tried switching
 to the Text tab and I selected some text and clicked a QuickTag. If I make
 no other change, then in the widgets admin screen when I hit Save the tags
 that were added then get lost. Likewise, in the customizer, if I hit a
 QuickTag then the preview is not affected. The problem is that the
 `change` event is not being fired on the `textarea` and so the widgets
 admin screen and customizer alike do not detect that a change was made.
