Details

Might be an evangelism/outreach bug. STR: * Load seatguru.com. * Tap in the "Airline" field. * Close the bullshit popup flight search thing. * Type "Alaska". Expected (see desktop): * A dropdown menu under the text field, containing "Alaska Airlines". Actual: * No dropdown. No difference enabling desktop mode; we get the same (desktop) page regardless of UA.
Note that hitting "Go" on the soft keyboard causes (a) an input validation error ("Please enter all required fields"), and (b) the menu dropdown to appear. That presumably means the page is listening for an input event (keyup, keydown, ...) that isn't sent by our IME. Jim, could you determine whether this is a bug for us or for SeatGuru? I've repro'd with Kindle keyboard, and Nigel presumably was using the Google keyboard.

Probably same as bug 968231? i.e. we don't generate onkeydown/onkeyup for soft keyboards, and sites should be using oninput instead of key events.

Duping to Bug 737658. Perhaps we should be sending some key events, in the interests of compatibility and functionality over purity...
