166280 - Use windows 'default' button property to enable mouse smart move

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 76053

(SeaMonkey :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Rob]

Windows hs an option in mouse settings that makes the cursor jump to the default
button of dialog boxes when they appear. This feature hasn't been incorporated
into the mozilla UI.

This is very useful, especially if you are a laptop (pad or nipple) user... and
as it is a driver option doesn't annoy people who don't want it if implemented
right.

I believe (from previous messing with VB and .NET) that it is as simple as
specifying default=true in the button properties - obviously this concept
already exists as one is hilighted when forms come into existence.

For an example, see the form which you get after clicking 'empty junk mail
folder' in hotmail - it asks you if you are sure, and in IE the mouse will jump
to the 'yes' button.

(btw version is 1.1 release... the form guessed wrong)
