This needs some kind of note explaining the setup. This also seems like a layering violation. Is this really supposed to happen for all events or just certain UI events? Is it supposed to happen for synthetic events or just events dispatched by the user agent?
(If you rebase and force push the CI error will go away.)

Is HTML supposed to refer to DOM but not the other way around? I noticed that this spec refers to HTMLSlotElement from the HTML spec...

Yes, it really happens for all events, at least in the chromium implementation.

It seems to me that the implementation only does something for mouse and keyboard input. Although maybe also for synthetic mouse and keyboard input? It still strikes me as somewhat wrong to have it as part of event dispatch. What's the design motivation for that?

There has been some discussion about the constraints of when to actually light dismiss based on the event here, hopefully the new changes address this concern: whatwg/html#7785 (comment)

Do you mean that it should only work if the event is trusted? The implementation does not currently check isTrusted, and mason's new patch doesn't do so either.

I don't know what the design motivation was, but if you have any alternative ideas I'm all ears

I think this can be closed now right and instead closing of popovers happens at a higher-level? |
|
My understanding is that this is still needed for pointerdown/pointerup-based dismissal? https://whatpr.org/html/8221/popover.html#popover-light-dismiss |
|
I see, so why don't have this logic as part of the code that dispatches those events? Why does it need to be embedded in the dispatch logic of all events? |
Good idea, I'll try moving this to the code that creates pointer events and see what happens |
I am adding a new HTML attribute called "popover" in whatwg/html#8221 Part of this feature involves "light dismiss", where clicking outside of an element with the popover attribute causes it to be closed. This functionality was originally implemented by changing the event dispatching system of the DOM, but it was recommended to move it here instead: whatwg/dom#1117 (comment) https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/4023021

I have opened a PR on pointerevents here: w3c/pointerevents#460 |
This patch also moves the keyboard event handling directly to the keyboard event manager, where the same logic for dialog elements and CloseWatcher lives. This was recommended in my spec reviews: whatwg/dom#1117 (comment) Bug: 1307772 Change-Id: Idcfdefed4c783d270ed4ca494c54fee70c444914 Reviewed-on: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/4023021 Commit-Queue: Joey Arhar <jarhar@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Mason Freed <masonf@chromium.org> Auto-Submit: Joey Arhar <jarhar@chromium.org> Cr-Commit-Position: refs/heads/main@{#1077035}

Move light dismiss logic to PointerCaptureController::dispatchEvent so the event can't be cancelled, also see: whatwg/dom#1117 (comment) * LayoutTests/imported/w3c/web-platform-tests/html/semantics/popovers/light-dismiss-event-ordering-expected.txt: * LayoutTests/imported/w3c/web-platform-tests/html/semantics/popovers/popover-light-dismiss-expected.txt: * LayoutTests/platform/glib/imported/w3c/web-platform-tests/html/semantics/popovers/popover-light-dismiss-expected.txt: * Source/WebCore/dom/Document.cpp: (WebCore::Document::handlePopoverLightDismiss): * Source/WebCore/dom/Document.h: * Source/WebCore/dom/Node.cpp: (WebCore::Node::defaultEventHandler): * Source/WebCore/page/PointerCaptureController.cpp: (WebCore::PointerCaptureController::pointerEventWillBeDispatched): Canonical link: https://commits.webkit.org/262283@main

TODO add a better description
