`Document.execCommand()` may cause firing DOM events and/or running some
observers. Therefore, web apps can call it recursively. However,
Chromium has already stopped supporting it (since 2014)[1][2].
And it'll be documented in execCommand spec[3].
This is testing in Nightly and early Beta[4] since 75 (Feb, 2020). So,
I'd like to drop the support in Release channel and late Beta too
starting from 82, but it's still under COVID-19 situation so that if you
have some concern, let me know.
