Hi all, When reading the section about editable text, two questions came to my mind: * should there also be an attribute indicating whether a text is "selectable" (true|false)? There are cases where you want text elements to react to events, but not be selectable. Setting "pointer-events" to "none" also turns of the ability to react to mouse-events, such as "onclick". I think, such an addition might be useful. Of course, setting "selectable" to false would also turn off "editable". * should there be a way to set boundaries an how many characters the child of a text-element (or tspan) can contain? Esp. if the user pastes text from the clipboard. Imagine you have a textfield where you want to limit the number of characters the user can enter or paste, say to 50 characters. Potentially, the user could paste pages of text, which could lead to undesirable results. Thanks for discussion/clarifications. Andreas
