In a page without a viewport meta tag, tapping an editable element zooms out. This is highly unpractical, since, to be able to precisely place the cursor and see what you are editing, it is almost always necessary to zoom in. To reproduce, open this minimal test document: <!doctype html> <div contenteditable=true> <p>Hello this editable content</p> </div> Zoom in, and tap the paragraph. The page zooms out. Tapping again sometimes causes the page to zoom out even further. I assume the browser is trying to zoom the whole div into view, but I'd argue that that is not a helpful behavior here.
Bug sounds mentorable. Moving over to GPZ, but am not sure if it belongs elsewhere.
