@seanpdoyle I got a CI error due to attachInternals failing in old Safari. I wondered why it passed the other day in your PR. It seems it didn't run the sauce tests there?

That's surprising.
The merge commit failed against main, but passed (or did not run) on the PR.

CI reads the SAUCE-prefixed environment variables from GitHub action secrets, sets them as environment variables, then reads those values as part of the Karma setup.
However,
With the exception of GITHUB_TOKEN, secrets are not passed to the runner when a workflow is triggered from a forked repository.
That means unless there is an alternative solution, pull requests from the community won't run in Sauce Labs managed environments. That seems like a risk to the project's backwards compatibility goals.

Dictation on iOS does not trigger composition events (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=261764). Instead, it triggers `beforeinput` events with `insertText`. During the dictation phase, it keeps the range anchored to the cursor, and iOS may modify past text as new text adds context. Once dictation is stopped, it starts sending `insertText` events with word fragments. When a past fragment is altered, iOS sends a `beforeinput` event where `inputType` is null. In this case, perform a synchronous render operation to set the editor to the correct state. Otherwise, scheduled render requests can process invalid ranges and mess with the editor contents.

Fixes a bug where dictating in iOS 18 can result in losing or garbling existing content.
