40454 - Event problems during display of profile wizard

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: XUL, defect, P3)

Description

[Syd Logan]

Bringing up part of the profile wizard requires that the mouse be wiggled in
order for wizard dialogs to show up. Steps (provided by [e-mail]):

Reliably reproduceable here.  Steps:
+ 
+ 1) rm -rf ~/.mozilla
+ 2) cd package
+ 3) ./mozilla -installer
+ 4) Click "Manage Profiles"
+ 5) Select "jwb" (your username instead)
+ 6) Click "Start Mozilla"
+ 7) Wiggle the mouse (that's another bug)

For me, the steps to see this when creating a new profile are nearly the same,
except step 5 I select the "Create New Profile" button and have to wiggle the
mouse in order to get the next dialog in the wizard to popup.

Nominating dogfood because this indicates a problem in our basic infrastructure,
and a product that requires a user to wiggle the mouse in order for dialogs to
appear is not dogfood ready.

I think this is a duplicate of bug #35284 'onClick fires on blur, not button 
up'.  Anyone agree?

Comment 3

[Jeffrey Baker]

I don't agree on the duplicate, because I can't reproduce Bug 35284 on the same
build that I see this bug.  Besides that, I think this bug is more appropriately
prioritized.

Putting on [nsbeta2+][dogfood-] radar.  Does not need a fix ASAP for daily work, 
but we should fix this for beta2.

The problem is understood here, we're just trying to make sure the fix doesn't 
break anything else.

Adding keyword to bugs which already show a nsbeta2 triage value in the status 
whiteboard so the queries don't get screwed up.
