1460269 - [FTL] Multiple selector's choices hidden after edit if blank

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Webtools Graveyard :: Pontoon, defect)

Description

[[DEACTIVATED] Adrian Gaudebert]

Steps to reproduce:
-------------------

1. Go to an FTL file to translate it
2. Open a string with a multiple selector (e.g. https://github.com/mozilla-l10n/pontoon-ftl/blob/master/en-US/demo.ftl#L73-L80 )
3. Fill one value, leave the rest empty
4. Save

Expected result:
----------------

The rich editor shows all options, with empty values where nothing was entered.

Actual result:
--------------

The rich editor shows a simple text editor. It is also an <input> styled as a <textarea> (can be verified by hitting the Enter key).

That's actually by design. FTL translations can be simple, even if the original string is complex.

Simple strings can be turned back into complex ones via source editor. We'll make part of that possible from the complex UI, too - which is tracked in other bugs.
