It is neigh-on impossible to write javascript to detect a change to an input 
field as a result of drag and drop.

I believe that mozilla should set and release to field focus when a drag drop 
has occurred, or set the focus to the browser window (and hence the form field) 
as other widows applications do. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached page in mozilla
2. Open another windows application (or mozilla window)
3. Drag and drop text from the second window into the input field in mozilla.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla will not take the focus and no events will be raised.


Expected Results:  
Mozilla should take the focus or trigger an onBlur, onChange event.

Yep, duplicate. It didn't come up in a search for drag and drop.
