Using on a page with multiple quill documents causes issues with cursor

[sferoze]

@pedrosanta hey, and thank you for the wonderful work so far with sharedb and quill!

I was able to follow along and get quill and sharedb working with my application.

But I have multiple quill documents on a page. And each document generates its own quill instance with cursor module.

So each quill instance registers its text change event with the syncing of the cursors.

So when editing a particular note, it sets the range of that note, but the range is applied to every note.

I think it would be good to come up with a solution where it doesn't require only one quill document on a page.

We need someway to scope the cursor to the particular quill instance.

Hi @sferoze,

Yap, I see... 🤔 I thought the cursors list was a property of each module instance, but then again Quill might not be instantiating a new module for each Quill instance... I'll check that out and will get back asap.

I agree with you, the module should absolutely support that case.

Hi @pedrosanta, any update on this? I have a use case where there is typically 5 but sometimes up to 10 different quill editors in one page. Would that be supported today or is this till pending work?
