           Summary: [Qt] Many WebActions don't accurately track when they
                    are applicable
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Qt
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: elbunce at xendom.com


The enablement of many WebActions doesn't accurately track when they are
applicable.
 * Many commands that are implemented by using an Editor Command are tracking
Editor can{EditRichly,Cut,Copy,Paste}(), which don't accurately reflect the
availability of the underlying commands.
 * The setTextDirection{} actions that may be applicable to several non-rich
editing context have their enablement controlled by the Editor canEditRichly().

I propose using the underlying Editor Commands concept and logic for
determining when WebActions are available where applicable.
I further propose that the setTextDirection() actions should be available when
canEdit() is true.

I noticed these problems while working on my QtHtmlEditor (found in
https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=28745).
