1670539 - Considering unified open/close software keyboard code

Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, enhancement, P5)

Description

[Makoto Kato [:m_kato]]

Actually, widget manages open/close software keyboard per platform. It means that we cannot write mochitests. Basic test for open/close is already available in gv-junit, but it is too hard to add some tests for edge case.

So I guess that we should manage open/close status in IMEStateManager. Some newer WICG spec wants to handle software keyboard state (although we don't consider this specs.)

Sounds reasonable if we could manage it in XP level. Please don't use #ifdef XP_* as far as possible, instead let's use pref to change the details for conforming to each platform's standard behavior.
