The text to be inserted.

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

InvalidOperationException

This is a shortcut for creating a new ITextEdit object, using it to insert the text, and then applying it. If the insertion fails on account of a read-only region, the snapshot returned will be the same as the current snapshot of the buffer before the attempted insertion.
