It is unclear why the `setSelectionInterval `is actually any better than `addAccessibleSelection`. Both have a similar implementation,  in some cases, the addSelectionInterval just calls setSelectionInterval, and seems that posts similar notifications. So it is unclear why the setSelectionInterval works fine and addAccessibleSelection does not work.
