76576 - Focus not being set in the text field for password dialogs

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 76746

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

[Scott MacGregor]

Not sure what component to file this under. I couldn't find one for focus or
dialog issues. Feel free to change it.

Focus is not set inside text field for password dialogs anymore. Try opening up
your mail account. The password dialog comes up and it has focus. Try typing in
your password. NOthing happens. You can hit OK though 'cause the dialog does
have focus. You have to manually click inside the text field before it becomes
active and you can type in a password.

This started happening with a checkin after 5pm last night. I didn't see it in
my 5pm buld. But I did see it in today's builds.

Maybe this is an editor problem and not a focus/dialog issue? I'm not sure though.

This logic is in commonDialog.js; maybe it needs to be changed in light of the 
recent prompt work.  Conrad, do these still use commonDialogs.xul/js?

Yes, it goes through nsPromptService.cpp which still uses commonDialogs.xul.
Only difference is that these things used to go through UniversalDialog, wheras
now they go though promptPassword, etc.
