My first idea was to setup a listener to the Transaction stream of the EditorState, and then update the counters only with the changeset, but this seems not quite possible with how operations currently work.
Currently, an UpdateOperation contains inserts in the delta, and whilst we do have the old attributes to compare against, it seems that it can happen that the new attributes delta can be a subset of the old one, causing it to be near impossible to rely on the difference in characters and words as the comparison of the two might not be representative of the actual changes to the document.
We can improve and build on this (eg. add Selection word/char count to the service) in the future.
