85239 - Mouse events are not going to Composer when clicking on "input" element in a page being edited.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 82547

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect)

Description

[Kathleen :Brade]

If I have a document in Composer with input and/or textarea tags, I can't bring 
up the advanced properties editor for those by double-clicking on them.  I can't 
bring up a context menu on them either.

We have a dup of this somewhere, I think.

I agree with Simon, I think this is a known problem.
Original summary for this was: "unable to bring up advanced editor for input
and textarea"
The reason is that mouse events (right or left click, Ctrl+Click on Mac,
and double click are not going to the editor that contains the "input" element
in a page that is being edited.
Note that in Windows, right-click does bring up the context menu, so the
mouse eventlistener for context menus is getting the event correctly.
But Composer also has a mouse event listener that should be getting the event
first. Maybe whatever we did to prevent the underlying editor associated with
the input element from being active has blocked events?
