           Summary: tab characters cannot be entered into text fields
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 522+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: rachael at omnigroup.com


steps to repro:
1 - type a tab into a text editor
2 - copy it
3 - focus on a text field (such as any of the ones on this lovely page)
4 - attempt to paste. note that nothing happens. if you paste in the center of
a word there's no spaces, nothing.

Also, if you attempt to set a text field's value via calling [element
setValue:@"foo\tbar"]; 
the text field will end up displaying 'foo'. The rest of the string is
concatinated at the tab character. If tab characters cannot be entered into
text fields, it seems reasonable to at least just remove them rather than to
discard any following information.
