📝 Provide a description of the improvement

The idea is as follows:

  1. Consider the following structure root->table->cell->image->caption.
  2. The selection is collapsed in a caption.
  3. Ctrl+A to select the image caption.
  4. Ctrl+A to select the image.
  5. Ctrl+A to select the cell content (if the image is not already its only content).
  6. Ctrl+A to select the entire table.
  7. Ctrl+A to select the entire root.

Alternatively, the scenario could work without 4. and 6. because it feels like a widget responsibility.

The idea was first described in the original PR.

Other: Improved the select-all feature so that it includes more and more content if the selection was anchored in a nested editable. Closes #6621.
