When a web page removes the click handler from an element, webkit leaves the event listener on the event target node. In practice, this works fine, because the click can't dispatched -- there's no click handler anymore.
On Android's browser, we draw a focus ring (like the ring Safari draws when tabbing) around everything that's clickable. If there's no touch / mouse interface, it's possible to interact with the whole web page with directional arrows and a center button. The clickability of an element is determined by looking for event listeners -- but in the case described above, the event listener remains after the onClick() attribute is gone. Here's a bug that includes a demonstration page, and a proof-of-concept fix: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23318 What's the right way to fix this bug?
