Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect, P5)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0

Also, if the focus is set to somewhere other then the editable region and you click into the contenteditable="false" then it shows the cursor, though, it does not allow editing.  The cursor also appears when you navigate into the region with the arrow keys.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click somewhere other then the area where the text is
2. Click on "Should not be able to Edit"
3. Alternately click on any of the other text
4. Use the arrow keys to navigate to "Should not be to Edit"
Actual Results:  
The blinking cursor appears.

Expected Results:  
No cursor should appear and when using the arrow keys it should skip to the next editable region.

Also, In the test page if you try to click and drag to select one word it selects the entire non-editing region.  Maybe this should be opened in a seprate bug?

Attachment: Test case

The only case in which I can reproduce this is when clicking on the non-editable area for the first time before focusing the editable div.
