Details

When you click a label associated with a checkbox, the sequence of events should
be as follows:

   "click" fired on label.             if cancelled, abort
   Checkbox value changed.
   "click" fired on checkbox.          if cancelled, abort and restore checkbox
   "DOMActivate" fired on checkbox.    if cancelled, abort and restore checkbox
   "change" fired on checkbox.         if cancelled, abort and restore checkbox

I haven't checked the exact sequence but the change event is firing, except it
is somehow targetted at the label (which doesn't seem to make sense at all).

Only tested on Firefox 1.0. Bring on the merge.

So why is this not a dup of bug 146066, exactly?
