This only fails for clicks when having the webdriver compat mode enabled. The reason is that the <map> element is basically not visible but overlays the specified image reference, and as such doesn't appear in the paint tree. As such the check should be performed against the referenced image but not the `area` or `map` element. Andreas, I wonder if this would need an extension of the WebDriver spec, because nothing really specializes image maps there yet.

Yes, this is a known bug with algorithm that’s currently set out in the specification. barancev: If you could file an issue against the specification when you have time that would be great.
