1902883 - checkmark in HTML panel's event listener popup is undocumented

Status: NEW

(DevTools :: Inspector, defect, P3)

Description

[skierpage]

Attachment: Firefox debugger's event pop-up showing undocumented event listener checkbox

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:127.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/127.0

Steps to reproduce:

1. View the HTML of an interactive page in the Developer Tools > Inspector > HTML panel.
2. Click on the white-on-gray "event" lozenge that appears after some interactive element
3. In the popup that appears, hover over the white-on-blue or -gray checkmark on the end. (see attachment)
4. Read the documentation

Actual results:

There's no tooltip for the checkbox.
I found the documentation page "Examine Event Listeners" for this popup, https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/page_inspector/how_to/examine_event_listeners/index.html ; it's good but it doesn't mention this checkbox or what it does, and the screenshot doesn't include it.

Expected results:

The checkbox's tooltip could say something.
The documentation should explain this checkbox, what unchecking it does, and why it's sometimes disabled.
The screenshot in the documentation should be updated.

We should have a tooltip on the checkbox, we do have an aria-label at the moment.

It is set at https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/0b1d02b2cb5736511139cf0e40b318273e825899/devtools/client/shared/widgets/tooltip/EventTooltipHelper.js#193-196

We should be able to reuse the same label as the tooltip for the checkbox.
