So I'm not the above poster, but for me the one that killed my workflow was this still-open, 17-year-old bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19536

And how on Earth is that a deal breaker? Selecting text from disabled fields?
- kuschku 7y ago
  a lot of websites assume that you’re using chrome and show content you have to copy in disabled text fields (with some styling applied)

    Never found one and, if I did, I don't recall and that's a sign that, at least for me, is a non-issue.

      I had 3 websites in the last 2 weeks (admin UI of self-hosted tools) where this issue was present, but I patched it out.

That's not really a bug - I'd say that's a product design choice. I'm surprised the ticket is still open, tbh.

  The reason you'd want to select text is to select text... same inside a text field disabled or not as outside a form field. Unless you think they should just disable all text outside an active form field?

    I'm not saying I agree with the implementation -- I think the text should indeed be selectable. But it's not what I would call a bug. I looked at the Bugzilla ticket type system and it should be an "enhancement" or "task", not a "defect".
