usage of labels is not as frequent, we hav mush higher priority bugs to deal 
with between now and rtm

I doubt this is mike's bug.  onDragStart is never even being called for 
selected text within <label>'s down in xpapps land, so the event is getting 
killed somewhere.  Rod, do you want this one?

labels were creating their own views.  Maybe this is a general bug with
positioned elements?

[Heikki Toivonen (remove -bugzilla when emailing directly)]

SPAM. HTML Element component deprecated, changing component to Layout. See bug
88132 for details.

Blake, what exactly is the bug about?  If I select some of that text and drag
the selection, it works (gets dragged).

Just trying to drag without selecting does nothing (which seems correct to me).

WFM or dup of a fixed bug?

drag without selecting does nothing also seems correct to me  (also fails in IE)

Comment 15

[Wayne Mery (:wsmwk)]

p.s. clicking on label text works in IE (invokes link), but doesn't work in FF
