Bug ID: 58998
Summary: document.activeElement can change unexpectedly while
typing in VE editor
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: ContentEditable
Assignee: da...@sheetmusic.org.uk
Reporter: jh...@wikimedia.org
CC: da...@sheetmusic.org.uk, i...@wikia-inc.com,

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
After observing some strange results from an automated Ruby test for cursor
movement in the Visual Editor CE surface, we did some digging, and it appears
that while a user is typing away happily and making and edit, the
document.activeElement flip-flop several times.
I'm assuming this is unintentional behavior, thus the bug ticket.
Repro steps:
1) Visit this page:
https://test2.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Selenium_user/cursor_test_page_chromedriver_bug
2) Click into VE editing mode.
3) With cursor placed immediately in front of the letter "a" in the word
"after", press the right arrow key several times in succession.
4) When your right-arrow-clicking brings you to the reference, the
document.activeElement switches from "ve-ce-documentNode ve-ce-branchNode
noime" to "ve-ce-surface-paste"
I'm assuming that when the user is typing in the "editing box", the
document.activeElement should not be changing.
