474508 - Pre-filled textfields under preferences offer undo function even with no changes made

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

Description

[Henrik Skupin (:whimboo) [⌚️UTC+1]]

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; de; rv:1.9.2a1pre) Gecko/20090120 Minefield/3.2a1pre ID:20090120020322 and back to FF2.0.0.x

All pre-filled textfields under the preferences dialog offer the undo feature. Pressing Ctrl/Cmd+Z resets them to an empty value or 0.

Steps:
1. Open preferences dialog
2. Goto Main, focus homepage textfield, and press Ctrl/Cmd+Z
3. Goto Privacy, focus the date textfield, and press Ctrl/Cmd+Z

With step 2 and 3 you will notice that the current value is resetted.

For a correct behavior the undo action should not be available, when no user-action has taken place.

I'm going through a deleting frenzy with my email, and am discovering long forgotten bugmails - and long forgotten bugs.

Henrik, is this still a problem? I don't see it with your STR. I'd hazard a guess that one of the various undo/textbox.xml patches from mid 2009 fixed this long ago.

No works for me too in a current Aurora build. Closing as WFM.
