(This is part of my detailed review of the Semantics and structure of HTML
elements section.)
In Firefox, any element that has a tabindex attribute specified,
regardless of its value, receives focus when it is clicked. Is this to be
considered a bug in Firefox or should the spec be updated to reflect this?
The spec currently says:
If the attribute is specified, it must be parsed using the rules for
parsing integers. If parsing the value returns an error, the attribute
is ignored for the purposes of focus management (as if it wasn't
specified).
