The whatwg/dom#1307 PR in the DOM Standard introduces a new "move" primitive, and this Selection API PR modifies this specification reference the "move" primitive in the section about responding to arbitrary DOM mutations. This PR does not specify exactly how the selection should be modified during DOM mutations, but rather obliquely references the effects that "insert" and "remove" have on the Range that the visual selection is based off of.
