Bug 115885 – <label> element should send key and focus events if it has contenteditable attribute.

• Status: NEW
• Component: Forms

[Yael]

HTMLLabelElement should be focusable if it passes the test isContentEditable(). As a result, the proper events would be sent.
Both Opera and Firefox support this behavior.

Merge of https://src.chromium.org/viewvc/blink?view=rev&revision=149973

Why do you do that?
Why isn't that in the markup?

You should use debug() logging instead of alert().

There is already code to do that in LayoutTest. None that you can use?

This is very much non-const.

Shouldn't you instead assert there is no pending style recalc and use rendererIsEditable()???

Can you share how to decide when to assert and when to call updateStyleIfNeeded ?

Taking test from Chrome bug and then trying to type in the Label field, it does work and show "keyup" event in Safari 16.2:

Is this needed anymore? Thanks!
