19981 - [DOGFOOD] need key binding per webshell not just one for whole app

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: XUL, defect, P3)

Description

[mjudge]

Akkana and I have PDT+ bugs and we need a refering block to list as a blocker
for us. this bug will list exactly what it is we want from sari and how that
blocks us.  Sari, if this is a dup of bugs you have, get back to me.

I am adding a JS interface to PresShell that will allow it to scroll the page,
move cursor around ect. This interface needs the correct View that has focus in
order to work properly.  This view is usually passed in from some event.  Sari
has a way to allow the eventstatemanager to give us the view that had the most
recent focus.(18046)

Sari also has a way to allow stacking of key bindings so that nested web shells
will be allowed to intercept keystrokes and call JS calls. aka copy,paste from
keyboard.(10642)

Marking as DOGFOOD for consideration by PDT team since PDT+ bugs depend on it.

Putting on PDT+ radar.

Not sure how this bug ended up in bugzilla product "Architecture", component
"Misc" -- I moved it to "Browser/XUL".  Can someone (mjudge, beppe?) shed some
light, so endico and I can track down the potential bug(s) that may lead to
bogus product settings?  (Architecture is for API review of each apparently
public .idl file.)  Thanks,

setting qa contact to the normal xul contact

This reads like tracking bug, but on closer inspection seems to be two separate
problems.  Please split into separate bug reports so we can track them and close
them independently.

split bug to 20225. the only issue for this bug is:

Sari also has a way to allow stacking of key bindings so that nested web shells
will be allowed to intercept keystrokes and call JS calls. aka copy,paste from
keyboard.(blocking 10642)

Mike, you're doing the work on this right?

Chris, there is some underlying code that you need to supply for Mike to
complete his protion, you need to provide the stacking of key bindings as Mike
mentions.
