[whatwg] Text selection in IFrames

[Fabian Jakobs]

Hi,

from the HTML5 spec it is not clear to me how text selections with 
embedded iframes.

If I have a text selection in an iframe and select text or click on any 
element in the parent document the browsers behave like this:

IE 6/7, Safari3/Webkit:
The selection in the iframe is cleared.

FF2 (tested in OSX):
The selection in the iframe is marked as inactive using a different 
background color

Opera 9.2 (tested on OSX):
The selection does not change visually. Text in both documents is 
selected at the same time.

What is the desired behavior in this case?

Best Fabian
