           Summary: [iOS] WebEditorClient::textDidChangeInTextField always
                    thinks that the change is not caused by user typing
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit API
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mitz at webkit.org

The way text input is handled in the iOS port makes it so that by the time WebEditorClient::textDidChangeInTextField is called, UserTypingGestureIndicator::processingUserTypingGesture() is already returning false. For this reason, the WebKit1 implementation of this client function disables the user-gesture check when targeting iOS.

We should fix handling of typing on iOS so that the client function can distinguish between programmatic changes and user-typing-initiated changes.
