768108 - OpenWnn Plus and Simeji insert autocompleted word before entered text

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Keyboards and IME, defect, P2)

Description

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

My example assumes your form autocomplete history includes an entry for the word "cat".

STR:
1. Load any page with a text input form. I like using the Firefox Mobile Support page.
2. Type "c"
3. See "c|"
4. Select autocomplete entry "cat"
5. See "cat|"
6. Type space

AR: See "catc|"
ER: See "cat |"

We are tracking bug 764193 for Fennec 15. If we want to re-enable the form autocomplete popup for Fennec 15, we should also track this OpenWnn Plus autocomplete bug.

I can reproduce this bug using Simeji IME, too.

triage, we don't need to track this IME bug for Beta 15. This bug affects form autocomplete, which has been (partially) disabled in Beta 15.

Form autocomplete has been re-enabled in Nightly 17 and Aurora 16, but OpenWnn Plus and Simeji IMEs have been blocklisted so this bug is not reproducible. Once we've fixed this bug, we can unblocklist these two IMEs.

Thanks Chris.

I don't think we need to track this IME bug for Aurora 16. This bug should not block a release.

We have blocklisted OpenWnn Plus and Simeji IMEs, so they will not exhibit this bug (though this means they only have partial support for form autocomplete).
