ACTION Steven MIPs on controls

Erik: My expectation is that it only impacts the control

Alain: I agree

Steven: I'm glad, because that's what I want, but I needed to be sure we all agreed!

ACTION Steven MIPs and trigger

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2024Jun/0006

Steven: My original question - https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2024Jun/0001.html

Steven: I need to know what "not activatable" means.

Erik: There is no default handler for a trigger.

Steven: So a listener has to take account of readonly itself.

Alain: I'd prefer for a trigger not to respond to a DOMActivate automatically

Erik: It's more than ignore, a trigger doesn't do anything.

Erik: It will receive the event, and it would have to ignore it

Alain: Yes cancel it

[Discussion]

Erik: Not cancel but propagate="stop"

Alain: Why just triggers? readonly on any control.

Erik: I'm not sure about what should happen in general
… I see how it could be handled for trigger in particular.
… It makes event handling aware of controls.

... I'm not sold on the need

Steven: I know enough for now to work on it further.

AOB

Steven: Next meeting 23rd August
