If you middle click on the page and the scrolling image appears, it shouldn't
have side effects.
The side effect I'm talking about is: middle click on a text area (like that
"enter a comment" text area above). It shows the scrolling image, but it also
activate the text area (i.e. you can now type in it).
Trivial, but still a bug.
Reproducible: Always

I suspect this is by design - you have after all clicked in the textbox. You
see exactly the same if you right-click.
Yes, but if the autoscroll is triggered, the redular click should not be
triggered. Imo.
Okay, I can't find a dupe. I suspect this is wontfix (it is probably by design)
but it looks like a perfectly reasonable question. I will make the summary more
targetted, and mark new. Not sure about the component, so it will have to stay
in general.

> I suspect this is wontfix (it is probably by design)
This is not by design (at least not by *current* design), because if I middle-click elements that aren't placed under the autoscroll circle, then click event doesn't fire.
The title isn't correct: it doesn't happen when I click outside the autoscroll circle (see bug 1173932)
